12th July 2009 This afternoon at the lower Changlimithang range, team Daju Bhai became the first team to complete all of their league matches and they did it in style with total of 39 Kareys – second highest in the present tournament, along with four game sets. In total, the team have hit 95 Kareys and made 13 league points. It is certain that we will see the team in the knockout stage, if not by points then by wild card entry. Wild card entries are based on total number of Kareys from among those teams that have not received automatic qualification to next stages.
Five players from Daju Bhai are now among the Top Twenty players listed. It is not solely through performance but also by virtue of having completed all of their league matches early on. The names may stay on or pushed out as other teams complete all of their league matches.
Daju Bhai was playing against Tshang Las and Rata Cho. It was the first match for Rata Cho and second for Tshang Las. Rata Cho hit 17 Kareys and Tshang Las hit 14. Tshang Las fate hangs on their third match.
At the same range, in the morning, Meeto Nga proved not as gentle (as the name suggested) when they took the six points with their 29 Kareys playing with South United (19 Kareys) and Dra Tul (25 Kareys).
The same morning at the other range, it was closer contest between the teams of Kuzu 5 FM, Rabtenling and Rinpung Charo. In the same sequence, they hit 28, 31 and 27 Kareys. Rabtenling took 5 points while Rinpung Charo hot 4 and Kuzu three.
In the afternoon, Baling Lawa Tshen and Zhiwa Nga (name changed from Zhiyop Puen Nga) each hit 26 Kareys while Zomlha lagged at 19 Kareys. It was second match and second two points for Zomlha. If such precedence continues, we will not see them at the next stage.
