Chinmay Sutar slams 213 as CCI wins by 217 runs

By Juili Ballal

Cricket Club of India (CCI) thrashed United Cricketers by 217 runs during the Young Comrade Shield in a lopsided affair. The match was played on December 17 and 18.

Winning the toss and electing to bat first, CCI piled up a mammoth 435/5 in 70 overs. Riding on Chinmay Sutar’s stellar double-century, CCI put together a formidable score. Sutar’s stroke-filled 213 was well-complimented by Saksham Parashar’s 74, Sujit Nayak’s 63, and Aarya Satpute’s 46.

Chasing 436 would not be easy, and United Cricketers would have to fight out of their skin to achieve the target. However, United Cricketers perished for 218 in 55 overs. Jagdish Jadhav (81) and Rahul Chandorkar (43) fought hard but failed to cross the line for their team. On the other hand, Irfan Umair was the pick of the bowlers for CCI with 32/3.
