Pawan Shiva top-scored with a steady 25 off 30 balls, while Wokha\u2019s Shahil Uddin Laskar led the bowling attack with impressive figures of 4\/42 in 10 overs, stifling Niuland\u2019s batting lineup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In response, Wokha faltered in their chase, losing wickets at regular intervals and eventually getting bowled out for 94 runs in 37 overs. Liren M Jungio tried to stabilize the innings with a fighting 35 off 74 balls, but lacked support from the other end. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Batting first after winning the toss, Mokokchung posted 173 runs in 40.2 overs, anchored by a composed knock of 67 off 96 balls by Olemjung.
