Asked to bat first, AKSDO scored 157 for 4 with Shelina Chanu Irengbam leading the innings with a fine knock of 56 as Olebia Khundrakpam was unbeaten on 18, Langlen Ningthoujam made 17 and Taniya Ningthoujam contributed 13 .
In the process, the Khangabok side lost two of their wickets to Barkatun and one to Firdouse.
In their response, FORCE came up short as fighting efforts from Neha (38) and Barkatun (37) went in vain.
They were bowled out for 148 in 29.3 overs.
Alish Thokchom turned hero in the AKSDO attack.
She was a nightmare for FORCE'S batters as her feisty spell of seven overs earned her seven wickets, with Moirangthem Daina Devi and Bijiya Khundrakpam taking one each.
