Maliban Biscuits emerged undefeated champions of the Stafford Motors sponsored MCA G division T20 league cricket tournament overcoming Brandix Apparel by seven wickets at the MCA ground on Friday.
Maliban Biscuit›s bowlers set up the win by restricting Brandix Apparel to 103 runs, a target which their batsmen surpassed with seven wickets in hand and over three overs to spare.
The playoff for third place between Star Garments and tournament sponsors Stafford Motors was abandoned due to rain which came down two deliveries before Star Garments completed their innings and the teams were named joint second runner up.
