Agility Panthers finally had a win after a string of losses. Winning feels so good and the whole team is now relaxed and waiting for some more action. Nisar's return was a boost for Panthers, as he made both his bowling and batting count. With his wily spin and good aggressive batting in the beginning made it sure that there were no hiccups.
Earlier Waqar and Anees started the bowling and left their batsmen clueless. Both bowled with pace and bounce and ensured that the batsmen couldn't break free. Kandy boys were only able to drag to 143 in 20 overs getting help from 9 dropped catches from us.
Nisar and Asif started the batting. Nisar took the initiative early and made their bowlers pay a heavy price for their poor line and length. He ended up spooning a catch after making a quick 27. Asif then took the momentum from Nisar and kept on playing with watchful aggression. And the minute he got the ball in his slot he made sure that it fell out of the boundary.
Waqar played himself in, but got out to a catch on the boundary; the difference between glory and guns turned out to be just a few inches.
Samir Bhai made sure alongwith Asif and Zeeshan that there were no further candies for the Kandy boys as he hit boundaries at will and ran well. His wonderful cover cut drive is still a part of my memory cells.
Man of the match: Though Asif had a 50, Waqar, Anees and Akmal bowled well, but the man of the match goes to Nisar, for his bowling and aggressive batting, ensuring that we finally break our losing spree.

It was a team effort all together, every one contributed. One important element is that each player should know what is expected for him, so that he can give his 100% and be more focused. I would suggest Waqar to discuss his brief strategy before each match and tell each player what is expected.
