Experienced left arm spinner Sagar Udeshi was also good bagging 3/33 in 13.5 overs.

Fort Vijay did receive a tough fight from Sind bowlers as they did not allow them to win easily not before sending their 5batsman back to the pavilion. Fort Vijay batsman chipped in with 20’s with Harshad Rawle(18*) and Neelknath Parab (25*) finishing off the chase.
