After exhibiting their sportsman spirit in the semi-final match against Surathkal Strikers on the same ground the Sharks messed up their appearance in the title clash of Mangaluru cricket's showpiece event, falling like nine pins against the hostile Bulls bowling.

The team owned by Karnataka sports minister Abhaychandra Jain posted an imposing 184 for four as opener Mohammed Asif (97*) and skipper Naveen MG (48) rattled up a massive score stand off after proffering to bat.

The knock of Asif, who was left on 97 not out off 60 balls, studded with eight fours and four sixes displaying shot all around the wicket and crucially finding the gaps with ease.

The emphatic win was set up by the joint efforts of batsmen, bowlers and fielders of Bedra Bulls who after punishing the bowlers of Ocean Sharks demolished their batting line-ups.

Zahoor Farooqui crushed the dreams of Ocean Sharks in the very over of the innings. Two duck-outs in the inaugural maiden over, another duck-out in the second over helped the Bulls to tighten their control over the match.

Besides bagging the man-of-the-match award, Asif also took home best batsman award for his 326 runs in the tournament. With 14 wickets in the hand Zahoor Farooqui on the other was adjudged best bowler. Naveen MG bagged the man of the series for his all-round performance throughout the tournament.

Prior to the final match an exhibition match also held between Amaco MPL team owners XI and Amaco MPL organisers XI, where in the latter won the match thanks to a ton by opener Imthiyaz.

Mangaluru, Jan 25: Orange vendor Harekala Hajabba, popularly known as 'Akshara Santha' (the saint of alphabets), who went on to build a school at Newpadpu village on the city’s outskirts in 1999 is among this year’s Padma Shri awardees.

When Hajabba received the call on being nominated for the award, he was standing in a queue to buy rations.

As he is not fluent in Hindi, Hajabba handed over the phone to an auto driver, who conveyed the news that the Padma Shri award will be conferred on him.

The unlettered achiever set up a primary school from his meagre savings of Rs 150 per day,  selling oranges in Mangaluru. 

“The first time I felt bad for being an illiterate was when a foreigner enquired about the price of oranges in English. I did not know what he meant. So, I decided to start a school in my village,” Hajabba had said during a felicitation programme.

When Hajabba decided to start a school, he did not get any support. He started the school with 28 children.

The school today has been upgraded to a composite high school and is catering to the educational needs of hundreds of children in and around Newpadpu.

He ran from pillar to post in the Zilla Panchayat to make his dream come true. All cash awards he had received went into building the school. The United Christians Association, moved by the sight of his dilapidated house, built a 760-square-foot house costing Rs 15 lakh for him. 

Hajabba’s life was prescribed for the syllabus of three universities - Davangere, Kuvempu and Mangalore. His success story is also included in a Tulu textbook.

He won the Karnataka Rajyotsava award in 2013, Real Heroes award from TV channel CNN-IBN.

Hajabba, when contacted, said he could not believe his ears when told about the award.

New dreams

The frail vendor, in his 60s, humbly declared that he could achieve all this because of the support of all. Hajabba now dreams of upgrading the school into a full-fledged PU college.
