http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Denmark-c2884 open with a win - Cricket News Update
A valiant half-century knock struck by opener Freddie Klokker, well complimented by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bermuda-c2853, played at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Tuesday,
March 13, 2012.
Denmark chased down a modest target of 117 set by the Bermuda batters in the final over of the match with seven wickets intact.
The Bermuda skipper, David Hump, won the toss and opted to bat in the batting friendly Sharjah conditions. Though they lost opener http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bashir-Shah-c47447, Dion Stovell and skipper Hump provided the side a steady start
with a half-century stand for the second-wicket partnership.
The partnership was worth 73 when Shehzad Ahmed broke it, having Hump run out in the 14th over. He scored 36 runs off 44 deliveries, which also included six boundaries.
After Hump’s dismissal, things continued to go downhill as the next five batsmen fell for single digit scores. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Robin-Martin-Jenkins-c2355 7, Leverock 8 while Anderson went on a first ball duck. With the wickets clattering at the other end, opener
Dion Stovell kept the scoreboard ticking and completed his meticulous half century. He was caught by Rizwan Mahmood off http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sair-Ahmed-Nisar-Anjum-c87966 on the first ball of the final over at 56. During his 52-ball stay at the crease, the opener plundered four boundaries and two
sixes.
In reply, the Danish started their run chase in a painstaking way with the openers posting 42 runs in the powerplay. They lost http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ahmed-Shehzad-c42359 and Pedersen in two successive deliveries but that did not hamper their progress to a comfortable win as long as
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Frederik-Andreas-Klokker-c58029 was at the crease.
Klokker fell in the 18th over soon after completing his half century but by that time the Danish were well on course to a comfortable win. Rizwan Mahmood returned unbeaten at 47 as Denmark reached the winning line on the first ball of the final over with
seven wickets intact.
Denmark will next play http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Hong-Kong-c2919 at the ICC Global Cricket Academy Ground No.2 in Dubai, the same day.
