Mumineen I had an easy day with a walk over against Alliance. This lead the Mumineen I team to still being undefeated in this league. Sunday was also the season opener for Mumineen II and Unity. Mumineen II had lost the toss and Unity had sent them in to bat first. Unity had struck very quickly on the first ball by getting Mumineen II opener, Salim, out. Next was the Mumineen II captain, Kam Khederoo. Kam and Fazal Deen were at the crease and decided to slow the pace of the game down after the wicket. Both batsmen bat thru the opening bowlers and were at 44/1 after 10 overs. With both batsmen getting their eye in, they quickly started attacking the Unity bowlers. Fazal Deen was caught out for a well played 17. Next in was Fazal Baksh. Baksh came in and absolutely flipped the game over toward Mumineen II side. Fazal was caught out for 40 runs. It was a 47 run partnership in just 4 overs. Kam continued batting well until he was finally dismissed for a excellent 44. Mumineen II ended up with a score 134/6 after their 20 overs.
K. Khederoo 44
F. Baksh 40
Unity knew they had some work to do by going at 7 runs an over on a good bowling pitch. The Unity openers Faraaz and Shazad were seeing the ball well with loose deliveries from Rasheed and Jeff in their first few overs. Faraaz was eventually bowled by Rasheed. This lead to a massive collapse by Unity. Mumineen II had Unity in this game...until Shafayat was in. Shafayat and Shazad had an excellent partnership and picked off all the Mumineen II bowlers. They won the match by 3 wickets with a fantastic come back.
