Adamjee Insurance Vs Tenpearls (4th Corporate Cup)
A brilliant performance from Tenpearls gave them a resounding victory against Tenpearls.
Teanpearls batted first and were off to a rocky start losing Aurangzeb quite early in the innings but it did not affect them in any way as when Ajdal and Asad got together they smashed the bowlers all around the ground. The both batted with a strike rate of over 200 and a perfect platform to their side. They were in supreme form and bowlers found it difficult to bowl against them. The duo added more than 80 runs together which helped their side. Ajdal scored 40 of just 17 whereas the highest scorer of the innings Asad scored 53 of 24. Once they were dismissed Adamjee came back strongly in the game picking up key wickets in the middle order. But again a late little cameo from Faiz propelled Tenpearls to a very huge 181.
The chase was a huge one and Adamjee never really got going and did not pose any threat to Tenpearls. They were outdone by the class of Tenpearls. Taimoor Liaquat drew the first blood as he picked up early 2 wickets and later it was the highest wicket taker Aurangzeb who picked up 3 wickets to completely put Adamjee out of the equation. The batsmen from Adamjee Insurance got starts but none could really carry their team forward and the highest scorer was Usman with 32 but it was not enough as they fell short by 35 runs.
