Mukhtar clobbers True Bell bowling
Mukhtar Kadri slammed a fluent century to steer Solanki Construction to an exciting
16-run victory in a tall-scoring match of the Quick Line 30 overs tournament, organised
by the Dubai Cricket Council.
The one down batsman cracked 128 off 59 balls, the highest individual
score of the day and put on 145 runs for the third wicket with Abdul
Sallam (62 off 44 balls) as Solanki Construction, batting first, knocked up
a massive 328 for six. Opener Sayyed Saffan (32) and Azeem (25) were the
other major scorers.
Unruffled by the huge task at hand, True Bell replied with determination
with openers Adil Butt and Sajid Zahoor building a strong foundation
with a stand of 144 runs.
Adil hit a swashbuckling 113 off 63 balls which included 11 fours and
three sixes while Zahoor weighed in with 73 off 44 balls (11 fours and one six).
Sohail (53) and Tarif Shama (33) did well to maintain the tempo, but quick
fall of the lower order denied True Bell what would have been a great
victory. Full marks to Solanki Construction bowlers who kept their cool
when it mattered most to restrict True Bell to 312 for eight.
