All-rounder Ayush Zimare captures everyone’s hearts with a gritty 95 & a 6wkt haul in the Kalpesh Koli Tournament ‘18

 

Played at the Matunga Gymkhana, Dadkar Maidan, U/16 Kalyan-Bhiwandi and U/16 Worli team took on each other where in U/16 Kalyan Bhiwandi won the toss and elected to bat first as the wicket had good assistance for the batsman too.

However, their decision to bat first fell flat as they were reduced to just 190runs all out in 71.2 overs with left-handed Aditya Bawiskar top scoring with a solid 54 at the middle order while the rest of the batsman not managing to make much of an impact. From the bowlers, all-rounder Ayush Zimare who has been one bight prospect since the time he started playing cricket continued to impress one and all with his effective left arm spin coming up with fantastic bowling figures of 6/42 in 20overs with 8maidens in it. Ayush bowled in the right areas with nice discipline and did not allow any batsmen to settle taking breakthroughs at regular intervals.

On the other hand, U/16 Worli team batted well notching up 262/9dec in 72.4 overs despite suffering a few top order jolts. Parth Pathak (60 off 138) and Ayush Zimare (95 off 129) at no.4 & 5 ressurected the innings with a solid 138run stand which helped their team post a big total. While Parth looked rock solid, left-handed Ayush top scored with the bat too in his fluent 95 which had 15fours in it.

U/16 Kalyan-Bhiwandi were 35/1 in their 2nd innings before the end of the game’s play where Worli boys won by an innings. It was a dominating pefomance by U/16 Worli team and Ayush Zimare stood out in the match as he was declared ‘man of the match’ for his all-round exploits.
