GUWAHATI, March 5 – Bilasipara clinched the crown in the Plate Division Senior Inter District Cricket Championship for the Nuruddin Ahmed trophy.
On the second day of the three-day final at the NF Railway Stadium, Maligaon today, Bilasipara lifted the trophy with a thumping nine-wicket victory against Biswanath Chariali.
It was, however, disappointing show by the batsmen of both the teams. If in the final match of a major cricket tournament batsmen perform like this it will reflect the poor cricketing scenario of the State.
Biswanath Chariali scored 38 and 133 in both the innings while Bilasipara’s first innings total was 126.
The highest score in the whole match was 37, which was hit by Nurul Hussain of Bilasipara in the second innings.
In the closing function Assam Cricket Association secretary Bikash Baruah gave away the champions trophy while vice president Bhakti Medhi handed over the runners up trophy. ACA treasurer Ghanashyam Baruah, joint secretary Bishnuram Nunisa and former Ranji player Sumit Dutta presented the individual prizes in the closing function.
The match was officiated by Anjan Pandit and Prabin Das and official scorer was Nandlal Mahato.
Brief scores: Biswanath 1st innings 38 (Deny Hazarika 14, Masum SK 6/6, Arindam Baruah 2/14, P Pratim Singha 2/2). 2nd innings 133 (Onkar Singh 30, Rashid Khan 22, A K Das 21, M Rahman 5/33, S Rahman 3/19).
Bilasipara 1st innings 126 (PP Singha 28, S Chakraborty 18, SK Das 18, RP Roniar 4/32, Paban Maje 4/25). 2nd innings 46 for 1 (Nurul Hussain 37).
