VALENCIA GREEN DEMOLISHES MOJACAR
Valencia Green became the third different name to top the Costa Blanca Division One league in the space of three days. Before the weekend Alfas were top spot, La Manga`s win Saturday saw the Murcia club leapfrog into pole position and then on Sunday Valencia Green beat Mojacar to surge into first place.
Green batted first and posted a mammoth 462 for 3, in an innings that included two centurions, the opener Ikram scored 125 and number five batsman Attiq did even better, making 151 not out.
In reply, Mojacar crumbled to 93 all out with Ali top scoring with 16 runs. Attiq completed a fantastic day by taking 3 wickets for only 12 runs off nine overs. As a result of the 369 run victory Valencia Green gained maximum points and took over top spot of Division One Sunday night.
La Manga visit Alfas on July 17th in a top of the table clash that is becoming increasingly important for both teams.
