Honsoty Bross SC wins with ease as Ashish Shirgaonkar smashes a blazing 122* in the Kanga Knockout Tournament ‘18

Played at the RTO Azad Maidan, two promising teams namely Honsoty Bross Sports Club and Daiwandya Cricket Club took on each other where in Daiwandya CC won the toss and elected to bat first with an aim of making a big total.

Daiwandya CC batting were all out for 214/10 in 41.1 overs which is a farily decent total to defend.  Opener Apurva Kamble top scored with 83 runs while Rushikesh Vagal at the middle order smashed a crucial 49. Both the batsman looked impressive as they smashed some really good shots. From the bowlers Bhavin bhansali(3/16) and Mithil Raut(2/37) were the pick of the bowlers as they bowled really tight which gave those crucial breakthroughs.

Chasing a 200+ score in Kanga matches is difficult at times but not when you have an opener who is in a different zone altogether. Ashish Shirgaonkar who opened the innings started attacking right from the beginning of the innings as he changed the momentum into his team’s favor. The attacking opener went on to score an unbeaten 122* coming off just 83balls which were laced with 15fours and 4sixes to dismantle the Daiwandya bowlers. Ashish looked really impressive with the bat and almost all the corners of the ground were covered in his blazing knock. Karan Patel at no.3 also chipped in with 41runs as Honsoty Bross SC won the match by 7wkts in mere 25.5 overs.

It was a dominating perfomance by Honsoty Boys while opener Ashish  was definitely the standout performer in the match.
