Malé Sports Club v Vyansa
Winning the toss is about all the success Vyansa achieved in a brutal match played at Ekuveni Cricket Ground this morning.
Putting Malé Sports Club into bat first seemed like a smart move as the ground was wet and in theory, should be difficult for the batsmen.
Abdulla Shahid getting a second fifty in successive days was again in fine form and setup a platform for Haleemdeen Faiz Ahamed to hit 7 maximums and 6 boundaries in a peerless 96 runs from 46 balls – and he could have scored more but the 20 Overs was up for Malé Sports Club scoring an impressive 201/5.
Vyansa, sharp in the field, made 3 run-outs.
In reply, the Vyansa batsmen tried and all but 1 player scored some runs; Kamrul hit 21 from 23 balls whilst Kawser went ‘all-in’ scoring 14 from 7 balls. Former Maldives National skipper Mahfooz bagged 3 wickets as did Askar taking his 3 wickets for 9 runs and a cameo 2 wickets from 4-ball-spell by Haleemdeen finished the innings off.
Player of the Match – Haleemdeen Faiz Ahamed
Malé Sports Club won by 126 runs.

The Cricket Board of Maldives wishes to congratulate Milan Cricket Academy and their efforts on and off the field to develop and importantly, retain home-grown talent in an era when all aspects of cricket around the world have been affected in recent years.
The match played today was an example of this with top-scorer Ali Shunan (36) playing a patient innings to ensure his team, batting first, posted a competitive target even with deserved celebrations being prepared in the corner of his eye.
AIZY, in reply to the 148 total set, battled against the excellent all-round bowling of Milan, to post 125 All-Out with Kamrul playing an attractive knock to score 54 for himself.
Each of the 6 Milan bowlers took a wicket with Shunan bagging 3 with his range of leg-breaks and googly’s.
Player of the Match – Kamrul Islam
Milan Cricket Academy won by 22 runs.
