Dawn Perfect ten by Mohammad Akram
23 May 2001

Mohammad Akram, the former Pakistan pace bowler, lifted a little of the gloom surrounding his countrymen's efforts at Test level by producing the best figures in England's Bradford League first division for 14 years.

Akram, in his first season with Undercliffe, took all 10 wickets for 25 runs against Cleckheaton, to become the 28th top division player to claim a full house in the league's 98-year history.

Another former Pakistan international, Iqbal Sikander, was among the wickets for Leigh in the Liverpool Competition as they ended Lytham's unbeaten start to the premier division campaign.

Sikander took five for 42 from 16 overs to reduce the opposition to 82 all out en route to a six-wicket victory.
