Azmatullah, Gurbaz hand Eagles easy win

A brilliant bowling performance from young all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai and a quick knock from skipper Rahmanullah Gurbaz ensured Ayobi Kabul Eagles beat ACTU Speenghar Tigers easily by 6 wickets in the 14^th match of Etisalat Shpageeza Cricket League.

Having won the toss, Ayobi Kabul Eagles’ skipper Rahmanullah Gurbaz opted to field first. The ACTU Speenghar Tigers’ batsmen struggled to be stable except Tamim Surkhrodi and Bahir Shah who played some amazing shots in their knocks.

Noor Ali Zadran joined in as number 3 and helped the Eagles win the match easily as Sediqullah Atal and Samiullah Shinwari scored 18 each as well.
