Balmohan Vidyamandir Whitewashes Billabong School in the Ongoing Harris Shield Tournament!

It was Balmohan Vidyamandir Team’s day for sure putting excellent performance both with he bat as well as with the ball. Winning the toss first and electing to bat first, the coach and the team already had strategies in mind. Left Handed Opener Sanket Gawari was advised by his coach to stay at the crease for 45 overs and the boy exactly followed his coach’s advice with an unbeaten 106* not-out standing throughout the innings like a rock.
It was one of the most beautiful innings to see as Gaware not only managed to survive the entire 45 overs, his patience and persistence at the crease was also noteworthy as his coach himself applauded that fact. Such was his batting, Gaware instilled confidence in other batsman too helping Atharva and Mihir carve out crucial knocks of 44 and 34 respectively. Sanket was also instrumental in creating good partnerships with the batsman supporting his team to reach a total of 252 in 45 overs. Though Jash Dedhia took 4 wickets for Billabong but the damage was already inflicted.

Billabong started on a good note until off spinner Shreyash Pathak came in and disturbed the batsman with four wickets for 41 runs. Part time off spinner Yash Parab also chipped in with 3 wickets including a wicket where Gaware took a stunner of a catch dismissing Jash Dedhia which was the turning point of the match. Jash is a big player and can single handedly take away matches, quite evident from the fact that he scored 60 from a team’s total of 99 runs & also took 4 wickets.

It was a very important match for Balmohan to qualify to the next level of Harris Shield

Tournament and they righty came out with the perfect show. They have more tough matches to come & all they have in strategy is to again make a big score & put opposition under pressure!
