Parco defend 97 to win against Bubbers

Haq Nawaz and Danish Ali helped Parco to a comfortable win with their quickfire innings against Bubbers.

Parco batted first and their openers Haq Nawaz and Ibrahim got them off to a great start, though Ibrahim did not last for long but he did what was required of him strucking 2 sixes of his first 2 balls. Haq Nawaz was then joined by Danish Ali and both batted together for major part of the innings and scored more than 30's. Haq Nawaz had to retire for 33 whereas Danish scored 30 of just 10. Arshad played a little cameo of 10 to take his team to a challenging 97 run total.

Bubbers opener walked out knowing that they have tough task ahead. Shamas Rehman and Mustafa started the chase in positive fashion scoring boundaries and keeping the required runrate under check at all time. Shamas Rehman was the first wicket to fall for 18 and soon after him Mustafa had to retire for 34. After their departure Parco bowlers tightened the screws and applied pressure on incoming batsmen. No batsmen could carry the momentum that opening partnernship had given them. Zohaib Jawad was the only notable contribution other than the openers who scored 17 of 6 but it was not enough as the innings closed out at 78 runs which meant Parco won by 19 runs.
