Despite a spirited effort, team 2 fell to a narrow defeat to Grampian. Momand claimed 4 wickets to reduce the visitors to 138 for 7 but an unbeaten stand of 53 saw Grampian home. Grammar skipper Masood had again held things together with 37 and was well supported throughout the order but 190 did not prove enough.

After a decent showing with the ball, Grammar would have been confident they could chase 189 but having reached 75 for 2, the battling crumbled as Grammar lost 8 for 43, only Agha Haider with 29 and last man Hassaan 19no making any impression. It was all the more depressing following Prash’s 3 for 37 and right spells from Hassaan 1/22 and Javaid 2/27. Skipper Haider also conceded just 22 from his 8. Next for Grammar is another tough assignment against Inverurie.
