Mishra scalps eight after brilliant ton as Mumbai Indians’ MI Junior debuts in Nagpur

Devansh Mishra of Centre Point School, Katol Road lit up the inaugural day of the Nagpur leg with remarkable all-round performance in the Boys Under-16 match of the Mumbai Indians Junior cricket tournament on Monday.

Mishra first struck a brilliant hundred and then starred with the ball by taking eight wickets to hog full limelight in massive 305-run win for his team against Podar World School. Batting first, Mishra wielded his bat effectively to notch up 116 runs and help Centre Point School score 394/8 in 40 overs. He was ably supported by Prabhviraj Lamba who scored 89 runs.

Chasing a stiff target, Podar batsmen looked out of ideas before Mishra’s destructive bowling perfromance and folded up for a paltry 89 in 15.3 overs.
