BKSP, the eminent sports training institute of Bangladesh has
proved their worth once again by becoming the 19th School
champions, defeating Scholastica by 173 runs in a one sided final
at BNS today.
BKSP put up a huge total on the board with a fine knock from
Nayeem who scored an unbeaten 110. He was supported by Rubaiat and
Scholastica's half-a-dozen dropped catches. Rubaiat played a
typical pinch-hitter role to score 67 of just 30 balls. His stormy
innings ended when he tried to hoist the ball over mid-wicket and
Saif took a spectacular catch. His innings included seven fours
and four massive sixes. At the end of the allotted 35 overs, BKSP
gathered 270 for the loss of three wickets. Both batsmen were
dropped several times.
Facing a tough target of 271, the Scholastican batsmen lost
wickets at regular intervals. The run rate was also poor. Only
three batsmen reached double figures. Extras with 34 provided the
highest score to the total. Scholastica ultimately were all out
for 97 off 32.4 overs. Nazmul and Nadif were the most successful
bowlers and captured three wickets each. Nayeem was adjudged the
man-of-the-match.
