For the first time in KheloKricket’s young history, a bowler took 8 wickets to seal a win this past Saturday. Super Daddy Cricket Club batted first against Dirty Dozen at SKBZ Ground. The batting side however struggled to get going, losing wickets too regularly to gain any real momentum. Rehan Shaikh and the ever reliable Shahzad Jumani were the two saviors for their side with innings of 39 runs each as Super Daddy CC ended at 137 for 7 in 20 overs. Dirty’s bowlers did well to restrict the opposition, picking key wickets when needed to help stem the flow of runs. Taha was the strike bowler with 2 wickets while the side’s fielding helped them score 3 run outs.
In response, we witnessed something that has never happened in our records before. Amir Tahir took 8 wickets for Super Daddy Cricket Club, ripping through the Dozen’s line up with ease as the chasing side were bundled out for 123 runs. Umer Ghazi’s 31 and a valiant half century knock of 51 runs by Abid Aslam seemed to have things under control, however once the duo were dismissed, the other batters fell apart. It was one for the books as Super Daddies won all thanks to an incredible spell of 8 wickets for just 9 runs in 4 overs.
Super Daddy Cricket Club won by 14 runs.
