NYNCL 30 Overs Saturday Tournament 2021
Richmond Hill Liberty: 132/5(17.0 Overs) Win By 5 Wickets Against Pak Tigers Cc: 131/10(29.0 Overs)
Pak tigers opted to challenge the RHL bowlers as they chose to bat first after calling the coin correctly. RHL restricted the opposition ranks as only three batsmen managed to enter the double-figure mark. Pak Tigers scored only 131 runs in 29 overs courtesy of a valiant effort by the RHL bowlers. Michael Sultan, Dino Chooweenam, Ramesh Persaud, Videsh Singh all had a share of 2 wickets each in disrupting the batting line. Chasing 133 RHL lost their openers early but their bowling effort had ensured that this does not affect their cause. Terrence Madramootoo’s blazing 31 off 16 balls not only earned him a MOM award but proved the last nail in the coffin for Pak tigers as RHL cruised to victory with a heap of overs remaining. RHL remains the invincible side of the Group A table with 16 points and 8 straight victories.
