Great teamwork helps Borivali CC wins the Kanga Knockout Championship D Div

Into the all important finals of the prestigious Kanga Knockout, Borivali CC after opting to bat first registered a total of 249/5 in 45 overs. The middle order played a handy role with Sushant Kadam (34), Abhinav Jagtap (41), Rakesh Naik (62) and Prathamesh Golatkar (37) providing handy contributions with the bat. From the bowlers, Akshay Ambike with 3/31 was the pick of the bowlers.

Chasing 250, Young National CC also had their middle order fighting it out with Omkar (32), Hanumant (51) and Dattaprasad (39) chipping in but they certainly required someone from these 3 to bat till the end as they were all out for 207 runs in 43.5 overs. Rakesh Naik and Vishal Kavaiya who are both left arm spinners were the pick of the bowlers chipping in with 3 wkts each as Borivali CC went on to win the finals and become the winners of the Kanga Knockout D Division.

Skipper Rakesh Naik was leading from the front for Borivali CC & last year also he was leading the KRP 11 team which went on to become the champions.
