Syed Forhaduddin contributed with 38 runs, and Shiful Islam had an excellent all-round performance (25 runs and 3 wks.). In Queens, Newcomers took care of Thomas Edison with a good all-round performance coming from Mohammed Islam (29 runs and 2 wks.)
On May 7th, delegates from International Cricket Council (ICC) made history as they attended a PSAL cricket match played between FDR and LIC at Erskine Field, Brooklyn. PSAL players and coaches relished the opportunity when they grouped together to take photos with the ICC Champions Trophy. The seventh and final ICC Champions Trophy is scheduled to begin on June 6th. in England where eight teams will compete for a chance to earn $2 million in prize money.
