Riding on a superb show by the bowlers namely Ankur and Kareem (3 wickets each) and Prankit‘s 46 run knock, Shaheed Bhagat Singh College (E) defeated Satyawati College (M) by 4 wickets in their DU Inter College knockout match, played at Swami Shradhanand College Ground.
Batting first, Satyawati College batsmen were not up to their mark as the innings folded for mere 111 runs in 35 overs. Imran Khan top scored with 38 runs and No. 10 Siddharth contributed with crucial 28 runs, without which Satyawati would not have crossed 100 run mark.

In reply, SBSC (E) were off to a perfect start with openers Tarun Rana (25) and Prankit (46) adding 81 runs for the first wicket.

Rahul Jaggi captured 4 wickets for Satyawati but it was little too late to change the fate of the match.
