Lira Sixers produced a dominant all-round performance thrashing Gulu Titans by a massive 140 runs on matchday two of the UCA Northerns Men’s 50 Overs League.
After winning the toss and electing to bat, the Sixers posted a solid 234 all out in 47 overs.
Although they didn’t bat through the full quota, their top and middle order laid a firm foundation, keeping the scoreboard ticking and setting a challenging target.
The Sixers’ bowlers then took complete control.
Gulu Titans were bowled out for just 94 in 27.1 overs, as the chase never got going.
Dhara Bhai led the bowling assault with 4 wickets, while Igulu Cymprous (3 wickets) and Addi Patel (2 wickets) backed him up with clinical spells.
Kapil Raste added a crucial breakthrough to complete a ruthless bowling display.
Only Elvis Ayella (28) and Felix Ochan (25) managed to show any resistance for the Titans.
However, their efforts fell well short as the rest of the lineup collapsed under pressure.
The Sixers also impressed in the field, executing their game plan with discipline and intensity.
This emphatic win keeps Lira Sixers unbeaten after two games, placing them on top of the standings with 4 points.
Their balanced attack and consistent form underline their strong championship ambitions.
In the day’s other fixture, Kinyara Blast edged past Gulu Supreme Warriors in a tense, low-scoring encounter.
The Warriors were bundled out for just 89 in 24 overs after electing to bat first.
Paresh Kerai (15) and Prakash Vaghjiyani (12) were the only batters to reach double figures, with the rest failing to handle the pressure.
Kinyara’s bowling was exceptional, led by Barugahara Abitex, who claimed 3 wickets for just 5 runs.
Lazarus Elungat also struck early, finishing with figures of 3/11.
Extras made a notable contribution to the Warriors’ total, adding 20 crucial runs.
Chasing what looked like a modest target, Kinyara quickly found themselves in trouble at 35/6.
However, a composed unbeaten 25 from Ivan Nsimire turned the tide.
Helped by 32 extras from the Warriors, Kinyara eventually crossed the line at 90/7 in 18.5 overs.
While Lira Sixers showcased dominance, Kinyara’s narrow escape highlighted the unpredictable nature of the league—where every run and wicket matters.
This weekend, the UCA Northerns Men’s 50 Overs League heats up with two exciting clashes.
Kinyara Blast face the Gulu Gladiators at Gulu High School Cricket Oval, looking to build on their narrow win. The Gladiators will aim to halt their momentum.

A big test awaits the Warriors.
