Ismaili Community Cricket Club continued their march towards the Gold Group with a commanding 106 run win over Soroti City Cricket Club at Lakeside Oval in Entebbe on Sunday.
The Silver Group leaders produced another complete performance, combining aggressive batting with disciplined bowling to stay firmly on course for promotion.
Batting first, Ismaili posted 231 all out in 40 overs after a blistering start from Shehzad Khan and Kamran Wali Khan.
Shehzad tore into the Soroti attack with 56 off just 28 balls, striking 12 boundaries, while Kamran added 31 from 25 deliveries as the pair gave their side early control of the match.
Although Soroti pulled things back in the middle overs through Juma Sururu and Stephen Okiror, Ismaili’s lower order kept the scoreboard moving. Ghulam Hunzai made 27, Junaid Khan added 22 and Ali Dishan chipped in with 29 to push the total past 230.
Sururu and Okiror picked up three wickets each for Soroti City.
In reply, Soroti’s chase fell apart almost immediately. They lost four wickets for just 16 runs inside seven overs as Ismaili’s bowlers took full control.
Junaid Khan led the attack with four wickets, while Kashan Yar Baig struck twice early to leave Soroti struggling.
Twijukye Emma made 28 and Bakunzi Derrick fought back with a quick 54 off 40 balls, but the target had already drifted too far away.
Ghulam Hunzai cleaned up the lower order with three wickets as Soroti City were bowled out for 125 in 25.4 overs.
The victory keeps Ismaili Community top of the Silver Group and strengthens their push for promotion to the Gold Group.
