Finals

The Ontario Reds were the top team winning both their preliminary games and the Ontario Greens with
one victory, were the second team at the end of the league stage.

Sep 3rd 2018 – 10.30 am

Ontario Greens won the toss and elected to bat. Kadie Ramdath and Suboor Khan opened the batting
for the Greens. Saniyah Zia and Amanjit Virk opened the bowling for the Reds with a couple of tight
overs putting the Greens under pressure. The Greens got a bit of a reprieve picking up 8 extras in the 3rd
over but a direct throw from Miryam Khokhar fielding at mid-wicket saw the Greens lose their first
wicket with the score at 15( Kadie Ramdath) in the 4th over. Terisha Bess was in next and both she and
Suboor tried to dig in and consolidate. The first boundary came in the 8th over with Terisha Bess pulling
Mahrukh Imtiaz towards mid wicket. That seemed to break the shackles for the Greens as Suboor Khan
followed that up with a couple of strong hits to the boundary off Miryam Khokhar in the 9th over.
Skipper Nicole was quick to make a bowling change bringing in Anto Dency who immediately provided a
break through getting Terisha Bess stumped by Nicole ( Score 45/1). She followed this up with the
wicket of Habeeba Bader in her next over and the Greens at the end of the 12th over were 58-3. That
brought the Greens Captain Mahwish Khan to the crease and she and Suboor steadied the Greens
innings with a partnership of 56 from 49 balls before she was run out on the first ball of the 19th over (
Mahwish Khan 25 of 26 balls with 2- 4’s). Suboor Khan anchored the Greens innings with an unbeaten
28 of 52 balls with 2-4’s. Greens finished at 117-6.

The Reds began their innings with the promising young pair of Miryam Khokhar and Achini Perera. The
two of them completely dominated the innings playing aggressively and tactfully and piling on an
opening partnership of 101 runs of 101 balls. The first to fall was Miryam Khokhar holding out a return
catch to Terisha Bess in the 17th over with her personal score at 44 (5 -4’s). 3 balls later Achini played
lofted shot towards Long Off and Hiba Shamshad took a superb diving catch to end her innings 42 (5-
4’s). It was still even steven at this stage with Reds requiring 14 of 3 overs and two new players (
Chuntell Martin and Nicole Samuels) at the crease. The Greens however were not able to keep the
pressure on and with Nicole dismissing Kainat Qazi for a boundary of the very first ball she faced the
odds turned in the Reds favour and they reached their target of 118 with 2 overs to spare. The most
economical of the Greens bowler’s was Hala Azmat who gave away 9 runs of her 2 overs, while the
other bowlers averaged between 5.00 and 12.00 runs per over.
