Mayuresh Yadav’s game changing 96 at no.7 helps Gaud Saraswat have the upper hand in the D Div Kanga League’19

Gaud Saraswat CC after being put to bat first at Western Railway, Cross Maidan were at one stage struggling with 4 wkts down for 30 runs and 7 wkts down for 84 runs. At a time when a defeat looked quite inevitable on the cards, it was Mayuresh Yadav scripting a change in the game as he went on to scored a quickfire 96 runs off 85 balls coming at no.7. It was an innings of pure aggressive strokeplay as he smashed 7 sixes and 4 boudaries to take out his team from the trouble. Mayuresh also received nice support from Pramod Wagh (40 off 24) and Mangesh Jadhav (38* off 58) as Gaud Saraswat reached a total of 215/10 in 45 overs. From the bowlers, it was Digvijay Singh once again showing his prowess taking 7/66 in 21 overs coupled with 4 maidens. Digvijay Singh now has a stunning 31 wkts in just 7 innings which he has played in Kanga this season.

 Amar CC in reply were 198/7 in 35 overs with Sumeet Sharma top scoring at the middle order with 73 runs before the match ended in a draw. However, Gaud Saraswat could have faced a defeat had it not been their middle and lower middle order not fighting it out.
