Graham Brewster reports from te last three 3 team matches
Svanholm III-Malmøhus beskrevet af Graham Brewster
This 3rd Division East clash with Malmøhus WAS cricket at it´s absolute best. Great competition, friendly
atmosphere, 25 degrees and lots of “banter”.
Svanholm III won te toss and elected to bat under te excellent conditions in this 35 over encounter.
Te two openers made an excellent start with Brewster (18) and Rocky Chawla (32) putting on an opening stand
of 68 before both fell in quick succession. Te visitors gave many extras to take te score along.
Another partnership between Sonnich (27) and te hard hitting Zeshan (49) took te score to a good total.
We regretted afterwards in not telling Zeshan that he was nearing his 50. Caught out just before reaching te magic figure. A total of 188 for 6 wickets off te 35 overs. Svanholm batting: Brewster 18, R,Chawla 32,
Bilal 4, Sonnick 27, Samit (in his first game) 6, Zishan 49, Navesh not out 5 and Shabaz (C ) not out 16.
So with Malmøhus needing 5.4 runs an over to win te game, they went to te crease. They got off to a slow start with good spells from te opening bowlers. It always looked an uphill task for them, even with
a couple of players pitching in with some runs. Svanholm III also gave away a deal extras, but all in all, it was a good bowling and fielding performance from them. Te visitors amassed to 165 for 7 off their 35 overs. Svanholm bowling: Zishan 2 for 16, Bilal 1 for 7, Hussain 3 for 29 and Navesh 1 for 27. A great privilege and enjoyment to play in this Svanholm side. A mention for Sumeet in his first game, a very tight spell of 0 for 19 off 7 overs.
Man of te match: With 49 and 2 for 16 in a tight spell..ZESHAN KHAN.
Og Graham var forhindret til kampen mod Køge II. Ellers ville han malende kunne have beskrevet drengespilleren Saif Ahmed forbløffende halvleg på 98. Grebet ud, da han var så nær sit første century. Vi scorede 201/6 på de 32 overe. Lilleputten Jonas Henriksen – der af størrelse nu ikke ligner en lilleput - i en af hans første seniorkampe (40) havde sammen med Saif en 5 gærdestand, der bragte holdet fra 101 – 189.
Saif Ahmed på vej til sine 98
Køge kom ubehageligt tæt på, men endte på 191 (Saud Munir 3/35, Saif Ahmed 3/51)
Mod Taastrup II beskrevet af Graham Brewster
Svanholm 3rds only needed to win this match to clinch te 3rd Division East title and be champions.
Taastrup batted first on a fast outfield. They lost an early wicket with Bilal clean bowling Kihurrum with a
tremendous yorker. However, te next two of Abdul Rehman (33) and Bilal Shah (37) put on a good
partnership. With several dropped catches and 36 extras, it looked to become a high score for te visitors.
Tight bowling from Captain Shabaz and a fantastic spell with 6 wickets from Toke Larsen, things improved
in te last half of te innings for Svanholm. Taastrup reached 164 all out in this 25 over encounter.
Svanholm bowling: Bilal 1 for 28, Saif 2 for 32 and Toke Larsen 6 for 34.
Svanholm needed 6.6 runs an over in reply. They got off to an uneasy start by losing a quick wicket.
A partnership between Saif Ahmed (13) and Graham (20) took te score along, but pressure mounted to keep in
touch with te run rate. Hard hitting Bilal Khan was unfortunately caught on te boundary as
momentum needed to be increased. A good innings later by Saud Munir (23) and Jonas Henriksen (14 not out) gave hope,
but te matched slipped away and Svanholm ended on 131 all out off their 25 overs. It is now left to te
other matches and te statisticians to decide te final group. Svanholm batting: Saif 13, Shabaz 0,
Graham 20, Toke 3, Bilal 13, Hussein 10, Sonnich 3, Saud 23, Asad 3, Jonas 14 not out, Azaan 2.
Svanholm Man of te Match Toke Larsen 6 for 34
