As UMI mentioned it was indeed a great weekend.
We had a great start to league match. Below are the highlights.
Match: Venue: Jnankshi VidhyaPeeth : Opponents : Caravan 11
1. As usual lost and toss and we were put into bat, which we always want as our strength is batting.
2. After lot of thought we decided to open batting with swashbuckling opener Dipu and a snail pace batsman Balaji. Their partnership for 75runs proved a match winning partnership as we didn't lose a wicket till 16overs.
3. Balaji continued to hold one end and we kept scoring runs at 4.5runs per over which we thought will take the score to 250 odd runs.
4. In between we kept losing wickets but finally we scored 244 runs in 50 overs quota. This is the first time we played full quota. That's an achievement.
5. Fast bowling was always a concern and we didn't had any experience bowler to start with. After a lot of thought we decided to open with Sujit and Sanjay.
6. Sujit's spell with new ball was an exception. Turn, bounce, good slip catching and backed by very good fielding reduced opponent to 32/6 in 7overs.
7. Balaji provided good support to Sujit along with Sanjay...
7. We thought we can wind up the match very soon, but lower order started hitting and as ground was small even mishits were going for sixes.
8. After a bit of struggle we made them all out for 170 and first win was registered by Palar...Indeed a great start to League....
Man of the Match : Sujit for his outstanding bowling.
