Ijaz scored a run a ball knock of 60 runs while Naushad contributed 45 runs as the rest of the Melubco batting struggled to come to terms against the excellent spell of Giby Alex who skittled out five batsmen for just 21 runs and ran away with the man of the match award.

In their afternoon match, Rosy Blue’s Mahesh Dhapa gave his team a fine start with 79 runs in 58 balls including eleven fours, but their other batsmen could not make much headway against the accurate Tellicherry bowling and finished with a meager total of 155 runs which Jaiprakash 42, and Giby Alex 39, rattled off in 17.4 overs to earn a second win for Tellicherry.
