METABO TROPHY 1

In the Finals of the Division I of the 20TH Gulf Incon Metabo Floodlit Cricket tournament 2014, Hanan easily defeated Qalco by 29 runs.

At the Prize Distribution Ceremony which lasted in the early hours of the morning, Mr. Adnan Mannai, Managing Director of Gulf Incon was delighted to note the excitement the tournament had generated amongst the cricketing expatriate population.

Mr. Prateek Yadav, Business Development Manager, Metabo Middle East had specially flown from Dubai to grace the occasion along with Mr. Sajjad Ahmed Khan, Sales Manager, Tools and Equipment – Gulf Incon.

QALCO winning the toss put in HANAN to bat. This proved to be a right decision as HANAN lost wickets regularly and were 36 runs for the loss of 6 wickets in the first 6 overs. However some lusty hitting from Parvez 26 runs with 2 sixes got HANAN to reach a respectable total of 93 runs for the loss of 11 wickets in the allotted 12 overs. Shakeel 14 runs and Azwer 13 runs also contributed to the total.

Ifzal and Budhika took 2 wickets each while Shahid, Sumantha, Hilmy, Aftab, Abbas and Pali took a wicket each.

Chasing the easy target of QALCO were rocked when opener Majid was out hit-wicket off the 1st delivery bowled by Captain Kadar who went on to claim one down batsman Sumantha being clean bowled for a golden duck. So QALCO were 1 run for the loss of 2 wickets at the end of the 1st over. Shahid was caught by Babu off Parvez without scoring. Thereafter QALCO batsmen came under pressure and were 30 runs for the loss of 6 wickets at the end of 6 overs. Abbas trying to increase the momentum was stumped by Imran off Aftab for 13 runs with a six. The only other batsman to resist was Aftab who remained not out on 19 runs with 2 sixes while Pali was not out on 8 runs. Finally QALCO managed to reach only 64 runs for the loss of 10 wickets in the allotted 12 overs.

Kadar Claimed 2 wickets. Parvez, Nasseer, Rauf, Shakeel, Azwer, Babu, Shaji and Aftab took a wicket each.

However, it was said that his wish was to be cremated here in Dubai which unknowingly sometime back he whispered to one of his friends.

Purushotham had few years ago, survived a heart attack and fought back his life, though it had a minor paralytic effect on him. Even though, till recently he used to do his day-to-day work normally. He was a hard working personality and owned a readymade garment shop in Ajman and Dubai mostly taking care of clients with requirement of uniforms and coveralls. His dedication towards work was always appreciated by his clients who used to get their things delivered on time always.

He was never a publicity person and was helping the poor and needy in whatever ways he could silently. He strongly supported the community and was associated with Nama Tuluveru and Billawa community with commitment. He used to voluntarily come forward for the ground work of various functions of the community and used to be there until it was done perfectly.
