Hindu College bowler Navendu Sharma‘s excellent bowling performance for the second time in a row helped them decimate the opposition yet again and continue their winning run in the DU Inter College Cricket Tournament. Navendu captured 7 wickets and got Sri Aurobindo College team out for just 57 runs, one of the lowest in the tournament. Hindu College overhauled the target with 6 wickets to spare.
Hindu College won the toss and sent Aurobindo College to bat first. Not a single batsman apart from No. 3 Yash Pokhriyal could manage to enter double digits and the whole batting line up fell like nine pins. The chief destructor as mentioned above was Navendu Sharma who rattled through the batting of Aurobindo College and was literally unplayable. Result- he walked away with 7 wickets in no time and the innings was over within 19 overs.
Chase did not go smoothly with Hindu either. They lost 4 wickets in the process but the target was so small that it did not help Aurobindo College from causing any upset. Pragam Sharma remained not out on 30. Aurobindo bowler Rohit Malik captured 3 wickets for his team.
Brief Scores:
Aurobindo College (M): 57 all out in 18.5 overs (Yash Pokhriyal 21, Navendu 7/20)
Hindu: 60/4 in 7.2 overs (Pragam 30*, Rohit Malik 3/37)

It seems like SGND Khalsa player Hirdhay Singh Riar is having the time of his life and is in the form of his life.

After that Hirdhay tried to carry the innings on his shoulders and was out for a superb 106 runs (131 b) with the team score reading 193. Unfortunately rest of the batting could not increase the run rate when it was required and the whole team was out for 230 runs in the 48th over.
