Idea wins last over thriller against GEP in Milan Corporate | Mumbai
Tournament : Milan Corporate 2015-16, Venue : Western Railway, Cross Maidan
No one would have expected the start of the corporate cricket scene in Milan Corporate cup, Mumbai would be a last over thriller. Having won the toss GEP chose to bat first and put up a decent total of 134 in the allotted 20 overs. Opener Shriyank scored 39 off 38 balls. The real push was provided by Chetan in the dying overs of the inning with a quickfire 30 off just 18 balls. For Idea, Adya Thakur and Javed Gajwani not only bowled economically but also picked up 2 wickets each.
Idea started the chase well mainly due to their opening batsman Samir Vedak. One would have thought they would easily clinch the win. But a few run outs and some tight bowling in the middle overs by GEP took the match to the last over. Rajesh Roy put up a quick fire 25 in 18 balls. Number of extras really hurt GEP in the end. But an excellent start to the corporate cricket scene in Mumbai with such a t20 thriller.
Samir Vedak was declared Man Of the Match.
