Elected to Bat, Honeywell Kuwait, under the captaincy of Mr.Hanif Khan scored an astonishing 159 runs in the allotted 20 over’s, losing 4 of their wickets making it a difficult target for the Abbassiya 11 to chase. The elegantly place placed and timed shots of the captain, particularly through the covers, helped Honeywell Kuwait in attaining this gigantic score. The captain scored 72 runs in his innings.
Abbasiya team, under the captaincy of Mr.Joby Varghese displayed a winning performance in chasing the score of Honeywell. The strength of the Abbasiya team and all rounder, Mr.Kannan proved himself yet again, in leading the team to victory by a very small margin. Kannan scored a steady 60 runs in his innings.
The wrong field setting and lack of proper fielding by the Honeywell team aided to the victory of Abbasiya 11. Abbasiya 11 attained the score of 160 runs in 18.5 overs, loosing 7 wickets.
Weighing heavily on the Honeywell teams minds will be Abbassiya 11’s recent victory over them in an attritional one-day played in Fahaheel. Honeywell Kuwait is all set to take on Abbasiya 11 in a challenge match, for which the date is yet to be scheduled.
