MATCH NO. 19
Syntel Won the toss and elected to bat first.
Iit was surprising as we have seen that at Brilliant
Sports Academy chasing was always bit easy in
morning matches due to early morning dew
Syntel openers started bit cautiously due to dew and
but Shivaji was undone by Pramod with beautiful
piece if bowling and it was evident from there that
this match is going to be low scoring and Yardi
added further firepower to it with their strict line
and length bowling Sabir sheikh started with
two big hits but not lasted the long and
syntel’s batsman was not in proper shape
to play the quality bowling from Yardi,
Prashant Shendge consolidated the
inning to make his team cross
Yardi 100 run mark but it was never
sufficient he was aware
Vs of that and once he
Syntel started to opening
up for scoring
big he was
denied by
good

bowling he went not out on 25 but he has taken
32 balls to do so which was below par as per T-20
standards. At the end of 20th over Syntel was 113 for
8 wickets
Gautam and Swapnil started Yardi’s inning and and
Swapnil was aggressor in the inning he has scored
quick fire 42 runs from 36 balls where he has hit 2
sixes and 3 boundaries while on other end gautam
was his usual best scoring in boundaries at the start
and scored 22 at the strike rate of 122, once gautam
was out Pramod has taken the role of anchoring the
inning and playing for team to reach near the target
and scored 13 runs from 26 deliveries before he got
out when tarun came on strike he was knowing
that his role is now only to finish the match in
fashion and he does the same as he ended the match
with six and four
Swapnil was given Man of the match for his allround
performance of 42 runs from 36 balls and taking
three wickets in his quota of four over by giving away

Siemens won the toss and invited IBM our goaL is
to bat first to deny yours
IBM lost their opener Srinath in second over
of the match but from there onward gurjeet
and Sankalp started to build the inning for IBM
both of them added 48 before sankalp got out in try
to hit big by coming out to Sanjay and missed the ball
where wicketkeeper Tushar completed the stumping. On
the other end IBM lost two more wickets and was on 104/5 in
14 overs they needed someone to play the last 36 balls for atleast
for another 5-55 runs and Pryag Mane was the man who has taken
that responsibility up his sleeves and started to run havoc all over
the ground and played the inning of 42 runs from 22 deliveries which IBM
included 3 sixes and 4 fours and finished the inning at 169 for IBM, Vs.
team IBM was happy that they have scored a good defendable
total on the surface which was flat and btsman friendly Siemens
First over first wicket and team IBM was on seven heaven
atul started playing cautiously as he has lost his opening
partner from other end tushar started hitting and
atul was more than happy to give more and more
strike to Tushar as he was middling the ball
quite nicely tushar was out on 32 in 5th
Over when team score was 45 Vishal raina
was the next man in and he has started where
tushar left the game in the meantime Atul was
struggling and was lost the patient and lost his wicket
Himanshu Joined Vishal and the match which was
looking balanced or can say that which was looking more
in favor of IBM has shifted towards Siemens at the
blink of eye and both the batsman have tear apart
the IBM bowler team management was running
to find the balls out of the park as both the
batsman has hit 7 sixes together in no
time and won the match for their team
with 4.1 overs to spare chasing a
whopping 170 that too in 15.5
balls, it was a humiliation, it
was a heartbreaking for
team IBM but they
have lost it….
Vishal Raina was man
of the match for his sublime
inning of 65 from 38 balls
