Ashwin Shete took 2 for 14 & Niraj Parikh took 2 for 33
to leave a gaping hole in the JBCN United middle order, one they couldn't
recover from. Among their takeaways from the contest was the performance of
bowler Ashwin Shete, who ran in hard and troubled the openers during the course
of an intense spell with the new ball. He finished with figures of 4-0-14-2,
bowling his entire quota for the BD Smashers.
The only semblance of resistance from there on came courtesy
JBCN captain Akshay Chadha, who brought out the big shots and relied on his
industry strokes to pinch runs in the face of some disciplined bowling. He made
an attractive 38-ball 52. With no support from the other batsmen JBCN United
innings folded for 128/10.
Man of the Match: Suchit Shah
Team Player of the Match: Akshay Chadha
A spectacular Anant Roongta power-hitting showcase was not
enough to lift HSI Lions out of a pit of the middle-order's making, though it did
fill the chase of 200 with much more explosive fun than it promised when HSI
Lions were 40 for 4. Anant wallopped 7 sixes and 5 fours on his way to 84 off 48
balls. But with 40 still needed for victory, Roongta mis-hit a length ball from
Kamlesh Shah, from where Parag Shah sprinted to complete an excellent catch.
In the end though, their dramatic middle-overs collapse, in
which HSI Lions had lost four wickets for 10 runs, proved to be the definitive
period of the game. Anant's heroics, at least, were further evidence that he is
a vastly improved batsman compared to the last season. A 5th wicket
partnership of 120 runs between Rajiv Gokani and Anant Roongta kept the chase
alive.
Akshay Chadha struck a 49-ball 72, putting on a 132-run
stand for the first wicket with Avanish Shah 68 from 44 balls, that formed the
base for JBCN United's commanding total.
HSI Lions effected one run outs in the innings, but even
that didn't quite make up for their lack of menace in the middle overs again
dropping catches, misfielding and giving extras. JBCN first team to qualify for
Bronze Semifinals.
Summary: JBCN United 199 for 5 (Akshay Chadha 72, Avanish
Shah 68, Neesham 64) beat HSI Lions 174 for 8 (Anant Roongta 84, Rajiv Gokani
36, Kamlesh Shah 3-38) by 25 runs
