MYO/Trophy Stall Inter Jamaat Softball Cricket Competition…
The MYO/Trophy Stall 10 Overs Inter Jamaat Softball Cricket Competition resumes tomorrow, Sunday, February 2, at the MYO Ground on Woolford Avenue in Thomas Lands after the 2019 season had come to an abrupt halt because of the onset of inclement weather over the holiday period.
The MYO team
With the dry season in evidence, the masjids in this tournament are out to resume their battle for supremacy. Teams in this competition are: LBI ‘A’, LBI ‘B’, New Mosque, New Amsterdam, MYO, Cornelia Ida, Leonora, Tuschen Train Station, Hague, and Diamond New Scheme.
This competition is slated for resumption with four matches being played. The first match, between Tuschen Train Station Masjid and New Mosque, will commence at 9hrs. The second match, between Diamond New Scheme Masjid and Hague Masjid, begins at 11hrs. Heading into the afternoon session, the third match, between Diamond New Scheme Masjid and the ‘LBI B Team’, begins at 13:00 hrs; while the final game of the day, involving the ‘LBI A Team’ tackling their ‘B Team’ counterparts, will be played at 15hrs.
Tuschen will be aiming to move up the rankings despite having only six points, while New Mosque are in desperate need of a win to boost their confidence. Hague is expected to easily defeat Diamond, having so done on countless occasions. The match between ‘LBI A’ and ‘LBI B’ is expected to be a thriller, since only two points separate these supremely competitive teams on the points’ table.
The points’ standings for 2020 see New Amsterdam on top with 12 points, while MYO and Cornelia Ida are tied in second place on eight points. Tuschen and Hague both have six points; LBI ‘B’ has 4 points; LBI ‘A’ and Diamond are each on two points, while New Mosque is yet to get off the mark.
This Inter-Jamaat Softball competition is being sponsored by Trophy Stall.
