At Marine Park, Prospect Heights and Brooklyn International registered easy wins again Wingate and Lafayette on April 8th. In Queens, Aviation Talwinder Singh (87) handed Van Buren’s its first defeat of the season, despite Tajinder Singh’s half-century (66). Two time champion, Newcomers HS defeated Thomas Edison by 166 runs with great contribution coming from Mohammed Hossin (87) and Muhammad Ashfaq (57).
On April 9th. we head to the Bronx at the new and revamped Van Cortlandt Park to witness neighbourhood schools, Clinton and Bronx Science do battle. Dewitt Clinton posted a total of 119, and Bronx Science fell short by 47 runs.
In Brooklyn at Marine Park, Hamza Rana (3 wks) and FDR held Sheepshead Bay to 63 all out. On the adjacent wicket, Mohammed Hasan of Lincoln registered the first five-wicket haul of the season as division rival Lincoln sent Midwood packing with strong contribution coming from Zeeshan Arif (60*) and Fahad Riaz (50).
On April 10th. Midwood and Prospect Heights registered wins against Wingate and Brooklyn International. In Queens, William Bryant defeated winless Thomas Edison, and Newcomers made light work of struggling Spring Field Gardens.
On April 11th. John Adams and Jamaica played in a nail biting finish. Jamaica posted a total of 115, and many fans saw the Spartans reeling at one stage of the match, but the result of the match was decided in the final over with the last two batsmen at the crease. Adams’ Ganesh Bheir must be commended for holding his nerves after stroking an unbeaten vital 27 runs. Over at Baisley Pond Park, Hillcrest made light work of HS of Construction, and in Brooklyn, Fahad Riaz recorded his second half-century (54) to help Lincoln defeat Franklin K. Lane HS.
