Batting first, RGW made a competitive score of 157/5 in 20 overs which is always defendable. In form opener Manoj Bedi once again played a solid knock at the top of the order scoring 42 off just 33balls. They did lost quick wickets in between but Ankit at no.5 resurrected the innings with a match winning knock of 57* off just 37balls. Ankit looked in great touch as he smashed 5fours & 3sixes at a strike rate of 154.1.
Their decision to bat first was spot on as Ekta CC managed to score only 116/11 in 16.1 overs. Even though Prince at no.3 scored a superb 47ball 61 he lacked support from the other batsman. The bowler who inflicted maximum damage and came up with excellent bowling figures was certainly Ashish Thakran as he took 4/14 in his 4 overs. RGW won the match by 41runs and Ashish Thakran was declared ‘man of the match’.
