For level “O” Exam the Coaching faculty covers all aspects of the game, they teach grass root level skills to coaches which covers all the basic techniques about batting, bowling, fielding and in exam the coaching faculty asks the questions randomly based on the coach’s practical and theory knowledge, based on that one gets marks for theory and practicals.
Exam Simulation Example- They may ask any 1 question in batting, bowling and fielding each. Like for e.g: during exam in batting you maybe asked to explain sweep shot and practically you have to play that shot and explain how it should be played. Coach needs to cover all the important things which are required to play sweep shot. In bowling for example you may be asked how to bowl a googly, so you have to practically bowl a googly and tell how it should be bowled! And coach has to tell 2-3 points which is required to bowl googly.

Opener Tushar scored a solid 41 while Suryaveer Singh top scored with an aggressive 73* in 45 balls (10 fours). Captain and Wicket-keeper batsman Rohit Rawat gave a brilliant finishing cameo of 32 in mere 7 balls which had 5 big hits much to the entertainment of the spectators and his team mates. Suryaveer also got good support from Rohit Choudhary who scored 27* off just 10 balls.
Defending a healthy total of 199, Ayush Tripathy from Bharadwaj CC bamboozled batsman with his impressive bowling coming up with match winning bowling figures of 5/20 in 4 overs. Ayush was spot on with the ball and provided breakthroughs at regular intervals which resulted in R.C.A Rajkot getting all out for 100 runs in 14.1 overs.
Bharadwaj Cricket Club won the match by 99 runs in what was an collective team effort right from quick camoes by their middle order batsman to Ayush bowling an amazing spell. Suryaveer Singh who scored an anchoring knock of 73* was declared ‘man of the match’.
Ekta Cricket Club opting to bat first were not able to make too much of an impact managing 128/10 in 20 overs. Ekta CC suffered a top order collapse however Aamir (33) and skipper Navin (24) ensured that their team reached a respectable total. From the bowlers, Shivshakti with 3/22 in 4 overs and Himanshu Bharadwaj with 2/15 in 4 overs with a maiden were impressive being the pick of the lot.
Chasing 129, Even NCML team were off to a patchy start with the top 3 not managing to make much of an impact. However, it was a brilliant partnership between Himanshu Bharadwaj (46) and Anish (42) which pusher NCML towards a successful chase. Both the players soaked in pressure as NCML who were 46/4 in the 9th over at one stage chased it down in what became a last over thriller winning the match by 5wkts and 2 balls to spare.

Oyo Rooms after being made to bat first at Mahi Sports Ground, Gurgaon notched up a total of 188/5 in 20 overs. Skipper Rahul Sharma opening the innings scored a quick 40 while it was Neeraj Calicotey at no.3 tearing apart the bowlers with a whirlwind knock of 112 runs in 57 deliveries. Neeraj went all guns blazing hitting 7 fours and 11 sixes at a strike rate of almost 200.00 pushing his team towards a strong total. Though he lacked support from the other end, it did not affect Neeraj’s natural game. From the bowlers, Gagan with 2/24 in 4 overs was the pick of the lot.
Chasing 189 in T20 is definitely not a cakewalk but a stunning 132 runs opening stand in mere 8.1 overs ensured that the game was in Swift 11’s favor. Openers Gaurav Arora (31 off 18) and Ashwani (76 off 33) took on the bowlers from the very beginning changing the course of the game. Ashwani was particularly destructive playing at a strike rate of 230+ smashing 11 fours and 4 sixes. Swift XI eventually chased it down in just 16.2 overs winning the match by 4 wkts.
It was a dominating where Ashwani was declared “man of the match” while Neeraj’s knock was equally commendable.
Udaybhan Cricket Academy after opting to bat first at Parmarth Ground in New Delhi posted a very healthy total of 260/9 in 40 overs. Despite some quick top order wickets, Captain Ishan Chhabra (86 off 85) looked solid as he stitched a match winning 167 run stand with Vikas Kumar for the 4th wicket which proved to be the turning point in the game. Vikas coming at no.5 scored an impressive 104 in mere 88 balls (11 fours) which also included good running between the wickets nicely rotating the strike with his skipper. The rest of the batsman apart from these two struggled though they had already reached a big total by then.
Chasing 261 in 40 overs is always difficult and Mukesh Yadav Academy must have felt the pressure of chasing vs the tight bowling of Uday Bhan bowlers. Mukesh Yadav Academy were bundled out for 79 runs in 11.3 overs thanks to a brilliant spell by Madhav Kalra who came up with excellent bowling figures of 5/34 in 5.3 overs. Madhav provided breakthroughs at regular intervals as he helped Uday Bhan Academy win by a big margin of 181 runs.
