Dilip Vengsarkar Foundation go on to win the finals of the Liberal Shield Tournament ‘19

After opting to bat first at the BKC Ground, Bandra, Dilip Vengsarkar team notched up a healthy total of 165/4 in 20 overs. Despite a patch start to their innings, it was Tushar Zaveri coming at no.4 to score a very crucial half century. Tushar scored a timely 56 in 45 balls which had 2 fours and 3 sixes while cameos by Prathamesh Angne (27 off 20) and Nikhil Khare (27* off 13) propelled team towards a decent total. Left arm spinner Mateen Mansoori was the pick of the bowlers with 2/37 in 4 overs.

Merry Youngsters even though did not lose too many wickets but they failed to keep up with the run rate required during the death overs. They managed to reach 130/4 falling short of as many as 35 runs. Bhooshan Kastur bowled a very economical spell of 2/20 in 4 overs while the rest of the bowlers also did a commendable job.

With this commanding win led by captain Rohan Bane, Dilip Vengsarkar Boys lift the prestigious title of Liberal Shield Tournament’19
