ISLAMABAD, May 12: XI Star gave Mehran Club a harsh lesson, walloping them by 373 runs with Danish Hanif and Naeem Anjum striking sizzling centuries in a match of the ICA-PTV League Cricket Championship on Monday.

Danish who scored 166 and Naeem Anjum whose contribution was 101 propelled XI Star to a massive total of 515 for five in their 50 overs. The huge score would have been beyond the best of teams to overhaul, therefore Mehran capitulating for just 142, came as no surprise.

Mustafa Azeem’s innings of 60 never seemed to get the chase going as the Mehran batting folded in only 20.5 overs, Rizwan Sabir snapping up three for 39 and Danish Hanif two for 22.
