ANNADIL BURHANI WINS PMM PRO10 DIVISION B

Dar es Salaam Cricket (DC) has organized the 10-over formatted tournament in honour of Paul
Manyanda, a respected cricket coach and official who passed away in the city early this year.
The Division B top honours turns out to be the first piece of silverware that Annadil Burhani,
which was among feared clubs in top local cricket tournaments in the past few years, have lifted
this year.
In the yesterday final, Union SC scored 83 runs for seven wickets in 10 overs after winning the
toss and electing to bat.
Openers Athuman Kakonzi and Danish Unia, who were instrumental in the club's impressive
displays throughout the event's group and knockout stages, were to a great extent not at their
best at the crease on Sunday.
They nevertheless were in the list of batsmen that had meaningful contribution in the innings,
with Unia scoring 19 runs which consisted of a boundary and a six.
Kakonzi's spell at the crease ended with 12 runs to his name, cracking a six.
Shiraz Shokat, all in all, was Union SC batsman with the most notable showing, scoring 31 runs
not out which consisted of three fours and a six.
Annadil Burhani's Mustafa Sulemanji mercilessly tormented Union SC batsmen and ended with
an impressive haul of four wickets, conceding 15 runs in two overs.
His bowling showing was by far instrumental in his outftit's ability to prevent Union SC from
recording an imposing total.
In response, Annadil Burhani chased Union SC's total with ease, dropping two wickets in 8.1
overs.
Opener Alaqmar Shakir was the outfit's hero, nailing 58 runs not out which included six
boundaries and three sixes, and steering his team to the successful chase.
Fellow opener Abbas Adamjee chipped in with 16 runs which consisted of a six.
An early dismissal of Quresh Karimjee, who recorded four runs which included a boundary,
hardly frustrated the chase given Abdulkadir Dossajee made certain of the outfit's chase with
five runs not out, which consisted of a boundary.
Union SC cricketers had to toil for progression to the final, as they were bundled out of the
Division B semi-finals by Annadil Burhani.
Annadil Burhani cricketers made short work of Union in the first semi-final, commanding a
seven-wicket win over the latter.
Union SC got a second chance to get a shot at making it to the final, as they took part in the
second semi-final against Dar Cricket Club (DCC), which had won the Eliminator against Estim.
In the second semi-final, Union SC made the most of the opportunity, trouncing DCC by 36 runs.
