The last time these two met the Kobras were kings. The Magpies finally had a strong outfit, in previous games they were depleted. They won the toss and bat- ted first. Haroon Majeed began his proceedings by hitting the first ball he faced for six. The bowler was not too happy to see him being dropped the next ball and then being dispatched for another two boundaries. It was a fantasy start for Marsa having 20 runs on the board after the first over. Majeed's luck ran out in the third over when he was caught after mak- ing 18 runs from nine balls. His open- ing partner Andrew Naudi made 13 runs. The match winning innings came from the solid Tony Azzopardi who retired and managed to get back in, totalling a score of 43 runs which included four fours. Along the way Marsa lost six bats- men for nine runs. Glen Tavilla en- joyed a knock of 20 runs which in- cluded three boundaries towards the end of the innings. Young Ali Hamza made five runs to round off the bat- ting. The Kobras gave away too many wides which cost them a total of 41 runs. Add a couple of leg byes and the Magpies totalled 151 from their allot- ted overs. For the Kobras, Kevin Krishna and Ravi Sharma took a couple wick- ets each while Nowell Khosla, Amy Caruana, Bikram Arora and Stuart Clarke all took a wicket each. The Kobras needed the big guns Bikram Arora (seven runs) and Nowell Khosla (15 runs) to do what they do best, unfortunately not on this day. Matthew Hatfield top scored along- side wides with 16 runs, Mike Carua- na scored 14 runs and Kevin Krishna made ten runs. The rest did not make it into double figures. For Marsa the return of Ronnie Sacco had him take four wickets while Haroon Majeed, Ali Hamza, Glen Tavilla and Anand Veerasimman all took a wicket each. The Marsa Magpies register their first win and earned 17 points from the game. They still remain third, three points behind Krishna who after earning two points are on 21 points. Melita top the table with 29 points. Next Saturday Marsa Magpies play Melita Bees. On Saturday the Sunoco Cricket Academy/Nursery will be from 9:00 till 10:30am.
