Young side emerged as Runners-Up in Finals

PCA 35 Overs League Finals Summary

(5th April 2015)

I have been honored the privilege of another year of addressing a very important area of cricket in Penang, the 35 OVERS PREMIER LEAGUE COMPETITION organized by the PENANG CRICKET ASSOCIATION (PCA). On an annual basis, this particular tournament is to form a major factor in encouraging playing numbers and giving opportunity to cricketers to excel in their sporting field. In addition to that, for every year this event has been held out, the atmosphere has always taken up a notch higher. It is great to see people from all ages to come together and play this magnificent game. It is also great to see that all participants reiterate preparations for this event to be treated with utmost importance and urgency so as to ensure that it is not taken for granted and never without a fight. This inauguration event was organized from November 9th 2014 to April 5th 2015.

The matches were played between 4 teams, namely:

1) TENTERA LAUT DIRAJA MALAYSIA (NAVY)

2) PENANG SPORTS CLUB (PSC)

3) AUSTRALIAN DEFENSE FORCE (ADF)

4) PENANG SPORTS DEVELOPMENT TEAM (PSDT)

Having defended champions, NAVY clenches it away once again with a clean sweep of five wins from six matches. NAVY as always came up with their ever tight fielding and a pretty solid batting lineup. And next up having PSDT as defending runners-up having a go with a silver medal once again. Never for once forgetting a team that played off with only youngsters from the age of 14 and so. PSDT heavier on their bowling managed to pull it off with the advantage they had. Besides that, PSDT boys also had a solid batting side having one of the most promising batsmen with consistent performances coming from here. These boys are ever energetic and ever burning spirits infield as well as the outfield. Lastly, having PSC consists of ex state players finishing off third in the table and ADF, the white men on fourth.
