Deadly spell by Rehman for Lahore
LAHORE, March 18: A five-wicket burst by medium-pacer Rehman Mehdi helped Lahore Whites defeat Service Industries by 77 runs in the NBP One-day Patron’s Cup Pool ‘D’ fixture at LCCA Ground on Tuesday.
Batting first, Lahore Whites piled up 279 for nine in 50 overs with useful contributions from Muntazar Mehdi (65 off 74 balls, nine fours), Adnan Usman Khan (47 off 67 balls, four fours) and Mohammad Hussain (40 off 55 balls, two fours).
In reply, Service Industries were dismissed for 202 in 45.2 overs despite a gallant knock of 72 by Sufian Munir.
In a thrilling finish, Pak PWD edged out Sheikhupura by a solitary wicket at Sheikhupura Stadium.
Needing 261 for victory, Pak PWD reached their target with only two balls left.
For Sheikhupura, skipper Saleem Mughal stood out with a magnificent unbeaten 133 off 117 deliveries. He stroked 12 fours and two sixes.
Allied Bank, meanwhile, scored an easy seven-wicket victory over Karachi Blues at Lahore Country Club in Muridke.
