CRICKET: Patong Penguins pulled off a dramatic last over victory against the Thalang Cows on Sunday (July 25), with Craig Morgan grabbing the headline and a deserved man of the match award for his unbeaten 88 not out in one of the more exhilarating games witnessed at the ACG this year.

While Morgan’s innings will long be remembered as an exhibition of sublime timing and power hitting that included seven 6s and four 4s off just 53 deliveries faced, it was in stark contrast to a personal fielding display the Penguin batting hero will undoubtedly wish to quickly forget.

Cows Captain Joe Ninan won the toss and elected to bat sending in Jeremy Bootsy and Pir Sami.
Patong openers Seemant Raju and Sajal Gaur (playing on his birthday) managed to restrict the usually attacking pair in the opening overs assisted by a much slower outfield than players have become accustomed to in recent months.
