Dhemaji Advances To Finals Of Kanaklata Barua Women’s Inter District Cricket Tournament

GUWAHATI: Dhemaji progressed to the final in the Kanaklata Barua Women’s Inter District Cricket Tournament from group I after their final league match against NFRSA got abandoned at the Nehru Stadium due to rain on Tuesday.

Both the sides collected same points, 4 points each, before today’s game but Dhemaji was top of the points table owing to better net run rate and it helped the side to move into the final after the game was declared abandon.

The final of the competition will be held at the Nehru Stadium in Guwahati on June 7. The opponent of Dhemaji in the final will be decided after the last league game of group II in Barpeta on Wednesday.

Earlier this month, Dhemaji registered a convincing 9-wicket win over Jorhat in the Kanaklata Barua Women’s Inter District Cricket Championship tie at the Nehru Stadium.

Chasing 91 runs to win in 15 overs (match reduced to 15 overs due to overnight rain), Dhemaji reached the target in 14.2 overs losing one wicket.
