Akash Suryavanshi smashes match winning 76 while Rohit Mohit & Ratnadeep take 4wkts each in the Summer Shield ‘18

Played at the National CC Cross Maidan between Brothers Cricket Club and the Daiwadnya Cricket Club, Brothers CC won the toss and elected to bat first as the wicket looked good to bat first and post a decent total to defend.

Even though Brothers CC were off to a shaky start losing a few quick wickets, the talented Akash Suryavanshi who came at no.4 scored a match saving knock of 76runs off mere 89balls to bring back the momentum back in his team’s favor. Akash smashed some really good shots as he looked confident smashing 8fours and 3sixes to take his team’s total to 220/10 in 42.5 overs. Had Akash not scored 76, it would have been difficult for Brothers CC to cross the 200 run mark. From the bowling side, Sachin Kanvinde and Nitin Bavishkar took 3wkts each.

Defending 221 which is a fairly good score but not a big one, left-arm spinner of Brothers CC Ratnadeep Chavan came up with amazing bowling figures of 4/7 in 6overs(maidens) to restrict Dauwandya CC to just 74runs all out. Fast bowler Rohit Mohite also bowled well taking 4/31. Both the bowlers were really impressive and especially Ratnadeep who bowled really tight and some unplayable deliveries.

Brothers CC won the match by 147runs and it was surely on the back of solid 76 by Akash along with great bowling by Ratandeep and Rohit.
