Captain Sarfaraz Ahmed played a responsible knock
to guide Sindh to a comfortable six-wicket victory against Northern at Pindi
Cricket Stadium Saturday.
Chasing a
low target of 136, the side got over the line with an over to spare in match-six
of the National T20 Cup.
Apart from Sarfaraz,
Sharjeel Khan played a brilliant 43-run knock off just 26 balls. He hit seven boundaries
and a maximum.
They were
well supported by Anwar Ali, who scored 31.
Haris Rauf
and Imad Wasim claimed two wickets each for the losing side.
Earlier,
after opting to bat, the Shadab Khan-led side failed to show resistance against
Sindh’s bowling attack. They were bowled out for just 136 in 19.3 overs.
The only
resistance from their batting lineup came from Mohammad Nawaz’s bat, who scored
30. Haris Rauf and Imad Wasim
contributed with 19 and 18 runs respectively.
Rumman
Raees bowled an economical spell, where he conceded only 15 runs in 3.3 overs
and also picked up a wicket.
But the
star of the show was Shahnawaz Dhani, who claimed figures of three for 26 in
his four-over spell.
This was
Sindh’s second victory in the competition.
