Harsh Bhosale’s 112* & Ayush bidwai’s terrific all-round show steers Fatima High School to a win in the Giles Shield Tournament ‘17
Played at the Young Zoroastrian Club, Azad Maidan, it was a match between two promising teams namely Fatima High School and Bhadra High School where in Bhadra school won the toss and elected to field first expecting the wicket to have some support for the bowlers and restrict the opposition to a low total.
However, Fatima High School showed their mettle with the bat and proved Bhadra that bowling first wasn’t the best of the decisions. Fatima High School notched up a very healthy total of 458 where in right handed Harsh Bhosale was the leading batsman with 112* off just 93balls (10fours). Harsh looked completely effortless and played some great cricketing shots while all rounder Ayush Bidwai chipped in with a crucial 57 off 43balls (7fours).
Chasing 459 is always a mammoth task and especially against quality bowling attack. Bhadra High School were bundled out for just 113runs where in off-spinner Ayush Bidwai was once again the pick of the bowlers coming up with impressive bowling figures of 5/39 in 10 overs. Ayush has been bowling consistently well this season and certainly looks promising. He also got good support from atharva evle who took 2/22. Fatima High school won the match by a big margin of 345runs and it was surely Ayush and Harsh who remained the standout performers. Cricketgraph congratulates the young players while wishes luck to all the players for their upcoming matches.
