Mohamed slammed six fours and two sixes to guide Everest Masters to 131-8 off their allotted overs, batting first before returning with the ball to grab 5-11 as the Media XI were sent packing for 96 in reply.
Mohamed shared in a third wicket stand of 32 with Hemraj Garbaran to steady their innings after they were reduced to 9-2 on a difficult pitch in hazy conditions. Garbarran counted two fours and one six in scoring 30 while Ronald Jaisingh chipped in with 15. Pacer Jermaine Neblett was the pick of the bowlers with 3-13 from four overs, while Ravi Persaud claimed 2-18 and Isaiah Jackman 2-33.
The Media XI, despite losing the early wicket of John Ramsingh (06), threatened somewhat, but lost wickets at regular intervals in their chase. Jackman who added 26 for the eight wicket with Keon Blades, cracked three fours in a top score of 32; Blades scored 16 (1×4), Neblett made 12 (1×6) and Persaud 11 (2×4). Jaisingh supported Mohamed with 2-21 while Johnny Azeez took 1-23. Mohamed was given the man of the match award while Everest received a trophy. The club was presented with $100,000 by Truck Masters for their 100th anniversary.
