Dawn Rain plays havoc in twin cities
15 September 2001

Overnight rain in the sister cities played spoil- sport as two Grade I matches of the national Under- 19 cricket championship saw play starting late in the day.

At the KRL Ground, only 13 overs were possible in the three- day match between Rawalpindi and LCCA Blues in which the home team scored 18 runs without loss.

Islamabad on the other hand had lost the prize wicket of their captain Raheel Majeed in their game against Karachi Blues at the Shalimar Ground.

Raheel went for 10 in Islamabad's total of 47 off 15 overs, after the hosts had been asked to bat first.

Summarised scores:

Rawalpindi (first innings) 18 for no loss in 13 overs (Osama Shabbir 13 no, Masood Asim 5 no) against LCCA Blues.

Islamabad (first innings) 47 for one in 15 overs (Farrukh Hayat 12 no, Muhammad Shahzad 3 no) against Karachi Blues.
