Main Umpire: MCC Leg Umpire: Batting Side
Reports:
QCCC won the toss and elected to bat! Both the openers Sameer
and Graham hit the Greenville bowlers all over the park and got their team to a
flying start! After a partnership of around 80 runs, sameer got out to a loose
shot and graham followed him soon due to an excellent catch by the greenville
keeper Kam! Even after loosing ramesh and saravana cheaply within the next few
overs, Yeshpal and Piruz came to the crease and started accelerating the run
rate for QCCC. Yeshpal had no respect for the Greenville bowlers and he raced to
the half century mark with some great shots. His innings included 5 boundaries
and 4 huge sixes! After the dismisal of Yeshpal, Satish & Kalyan chipped in with
some quick runs to end the final score of QCCC at 235 runs in 30 overs! A target
of 236 in 30 overs was going to be difficult to chase! Greenville Hurricanes
started their innings cautiously but soon found themselves in the back foot when
Sandip struck in the 4th over by having the GH captain caught at first slip. In
the next over saravana clean bowled Snehal with an excellent delivery and kalyan
took 3 quick wickets at the other end to leave the GH reeling at 56/5 in 12
overs. The Greenville Hurricanes could never recover from their bad start and
managed to only put 139 runs on the board in 29.1 overs before being bowled out.
However, Kam of GH deserved some credit for his patient knock of 40 while
wickets kept falling at the other end! QCCC had won a crucial match of this
season and really enjoyed playing against a sportive team like greenville
hurricanes. The man of the match was Yeshpal of QCCC for his quickfire 50 and a
good bowling spell!
