• Ismaili Community 191/7 beat Wanderers 98 all out by 93 runs

Ismaili Community, the champions of the national men’s T20 League, are on the brink of promotion to the Gold Division of the National 50-Over League after a commanding 93-run victory over Wanderers.

Ismaili Community scored their third century of the season off the willow of Shehzad Khan (100) to post a commanding 191/7 in their quota of 29 overs.

The 50-Over match was reduced to 29 Overs due to a persistent morning shower. The young Eric Mukisa had impressive figures of 3/18 in his quota of six overs against a very strong batting lineup.

In response, Wanderers was left reeling at 3/3 with Juma Miyagi (2/12) wrecking havoc with the new ball, and the run chase never recovered.

Only valiant knocks from Captain Ivan Kakande (24) and Rudra Prajapti (25) put some respect on the total.

Wanderers suffered their second loss of the season while Ismaili Community remained unbeaten.

Wanderers will be looking for two wins from their final two games if they are to push Avengers off second place and qualify for the top flight, but they have played a game more than Avengers.
