Vikrant Auti (202)- Continues from where he left behind in the Times Shield ’18

Vikrant who had scored 619 runs including a double century in the last year of Times Shield seems to be in the same zone as once again he opened his 2018 Times Shield with a thumping Double ton. Played between Mumbai Customs and Mumbai Port Trust, Mumbai Customs batting first posted a massive total thanks to Auti’s elegant 202.

It was a classy double ton by Vikrant Auti where he held his nerves facing 310 deliveries and smashing 26 fours. Apart from him, Prasad Pawar who has been in really good form this season also continued to impress with a brilliant 103* off 87 balls laced with 8 fours and a six.

Mumbai Port Trust in reply were all out for 137 and 170 odd runs as Mumbai Customs snatched a big win by 194 runs. From the bowlers, it was Balakrishna Shirke who was the most impressive of the lot taking 5/34 to dismantle Mumbai Port Trust.
