MIG Top order fires up while Date on fire as they clinch a commanding win in the Young Comrade Shield Tournament’20
MIG CC batting first on their homeground had a batting feast in hands with their top 3 amassing 350+ runs amongst themselves. Openers Swapnil Pradhan & Kevin Almeida provided a solid 114 run stand for the 1st wicket while India U19 player Varun Lavande played a brilliant knock of 108 runs in 94 balls (14 fours, 4 sixes) stitching a 178 run stand for 2nd wicket opener Swapnil Pradhan. The experienced Swapnil on the other hand anchored the innings scoring 108 off 147 balls laced with 7 fours with lots of hardwork between the wickets. It was on the back of this excellent opening stand, MIG reached a total of 447/10 in 67.3 overs. Left arm spinner Akshay Darekar continued his fine form with the ball taking 7/107 in 21.3 overs.
Bhatnagar Sports & Cultural Foundation were cleaned up for just 153 runs with not a single batsman managing to cross the 30 run mark. MIG bowlers were bang on with in-form pacer Nikhil Date running through the batting line up with an envious spell of 6/73 in 15 overs. Nikhil who has been amongst the wickets this season is giving a strong statement for himself with MPL and IPL round the corner.
Result-MIG CC won the match by a massive margin of 294 runs.
