Ajay Singh Janu hits second consecutive century to help Montage triumph over IDFC by 158 runs
Picking up from where he had left, Ajay Singh Janu of Montage struck yet another spectacular century during the Automotive Cricket League T20 on Sunday against IDFC at MIG Bandra, Mumbai. Opening the batting, Ajay’s blitzkrieg was unstoppable and he steered his team to a massive total of 216-3 in 20 overs. His 66-ball 105 was laced with nine boundaries and five sixes. However his delightful batting unfortunately ended when Singh was run out on the penultimate ball of the innings. Kranti Kumar (43) and Shubham Kamat (42 not out) joined the party as they took Montage to a magnificent score of 200 plus. Krushanu Shah and Dharmendra Sahu picked up one wicket each.
The lopsided affair ended on a horrible note for IDFC when Montage bundled out its opposition for a paltry 58 in 16.2 overs, losing the game by a huge margin of 158 runs. Opening bat Abhishek Sharma top scored with 19, however the rest of the batting line-up collapsed like a pack of cards. Surya Prakash was the wrecker-in-chief as he finished off his four over spell with 4-6. Sushil More chipped in with 3-5 in 1.2 overs and received good support from Mohit Awasthi and Shubham Kamat, who picked up one and two wickets respectively.
The man who hit two centuries back to back was presented with the Man of the Match for his stellar performance. Ajay Singh Janu exclaimed, “This seems like a dream. My joy knows no bounds and it is an incredible feeling to hit a century again in this match. I feel more confident about my batting now and look to repeat the same feat in the upcoming matches”.
