Shykat's century restores Sheikh Jamal innings


Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi Club are taking on Gazi Group Cricketers in the 37th match of the ongoing DPL. Batting first, Sheikh Jamal posted 265 runs for 8 wickets in 50 overs.
Despite a poor batting display from the whole team, Shykat Ali rescued Sheikh Jamal’s innings by picking up a magnificent hundred. He along with his opening partner Hasanuzzaman built an 86-run opening partnership. Hasan left scoring 45 runs but Shykat kept fighting on as Sheikh Jamal experienced a little collapse in the line-up.
However, Sohag Gazi and Elias Sunny were good enough to provide Shykat with proper support. Shykat retired hurt after scoring 115 runs but Gazi and Sunny kept the score ticking and made 42 and 33 runs, respectively. No other batsman could go past 10 runs as Sheikh Jamal ended up with a satisfying total.

Kamrul Islam and Nayeem Hasan took 2 wickets each for Gazi Group whereas Mahedi Hasan and Gurkeerat Singh picked up a wicket apiece.
Score:
Sheikh Jamal – 265/8 (50 overs)
