MSC fall short against Rupali
Farzana Haq Pinky struck an unbeaten 126-ball 110 to guide Rupali Bank Krira Parishad to a 22-run win over Mohammedan Sporting Club in a Premier Division Women’s Cricket League encounter at BKSP-4 in Savar yesterday.
Electing to bat, Rupali Bank were jolted by the loss of opener Isma Tanjim off the very first ball of the innings. Rupali Bank were left reeling on 41 for four soon after but a resilient Pinky helped the side post 225 for eight through a brilliant unbeaten knock, which featured 10 fours and two sixes.
In reply, Mohammedan fell short as they could only manage 203 for nine with Disha Kashai top scoring for the Motijheel-based outfit with 57.
At BKSP-3, despite half-tons from Shahnaj Parveen and Panna Ghosh, Bangladesh Ansar and VDP could not avert a four-wicket defeat at the hands of Abahani Limited.
Bangladesh Ansar posted a modest 188 in their allotted 50 overs, courtesy of 72-ball 50 from Shahnaj and a 46-ball 51 from Panna. However, Abahani reached the target in 49.1 overs with four wickets to spare.
