Union Cricket Academy after being put to bat first posted a modest total of 158/10 in 44 overs which is anyday a very difficult score to defend. With most of the batters finding it difficult to get going, it was opener Kishan Paney (34) and Sahil Shetty (35) being the top scorers for Union C.A. From the bowlers, Balwant Dodake and Ratnadeep Chavan with 3 wkts each were the pick of the lot.
Defending just 158, the pressure was obviously more on the bowlers to deliver and young fast bowler Harsh Pant certainly came to the rescue bagging all the top to middle order wickets at right junctures. Pant returned with excellent bowling figures of 5/17 in 7 overs as Brothers Club were all out for 95 runs in 32 overs.

EM’s opener Daiwat Rane and Prathamesh Naik were the pick of the performers. They stitched a partnership of 159 runs in the middle for the 4th wicket and it totally soared the innings total into a higher level.

He got the perfect support from Naik who scored a praise worthy innings of 64 runs off 78 balls.Daiwat scored a brilliant 116 off 106 balls and remained not out.EM scored 252 runs in 36 overs but due to slow over rate, they were awarded more 78 runs to the total that ballooned their score to 330.

Rahul Ghodke who played an innings of 42 off 102 balls was the only worthy mention. For EM, left arm spinner Ajay Thorat picked up an impressive figure of 4 for 33 in 4.1 overs.

It was a decent top order start with opener Hersh Tank and Auti putting on 82 runs together for the 2nd wicket, however the wickets fell a bit quickly post that partnership or else a 300+ total also looked possible at one stage. MPL Player Hersh opening the innings went on to score a brilliant 109 off mere 93 balls laced with 14 fours and 4 sixes. An innings where he was playing his natural game with controlled aggression. From the bowlers, off-spinner Praful Devkate who has a similar bowling action like R Ashwin was quite impressive taking 6/74 in 20.2 overs.
Defending 253, it was Musheer Khan emerging as a trump card for Payyade to trouble the opposition players. Young Musheer post his comeback has taken heaps of wickets for Mumbai in the U16 Circuit and he continues to dazzle this time taking 5/33 in 8.5 overs which also included a hat-trick where he cleaned up the lower order with his wily spin.
