AAA paid the ultimate homage to the late Abid Laheri by winning the Div 2 Championship in commanding fashion over Capitol. The fact that they were able to do this at the same ground where they last played with Abid Laheri must have made this a bitter sweet occasion. Led off by Khalil Dadabhai's blistering hitting combined with the steady batting of the consistent Imran Taylor and some big hitting from the always happy to oblige, Bilal Patel, AAA got to 205 in 40 overs. When you have a man called Satha Sivapragasam yet to bat I guess no target is really safe. But that is when the talismanic Hafez Adam Menk ( photo above) decided to take matters in to his own hands. Just like his superb performance last week that decimated ICC, he turned in another matchwinning performance. Bowling 8 over on the trot ( while fasting!) he carved out the heart of the Capitol batting - including a sensational clean bowled dismissal of the master Satha to end with figures of 8-2-17-4. Truly a match winning performance!Hari's Photos
