IES New English School is certainly looking promising in the tournament and are topping the charts with maximum wins. On 13th October, they had 2 matches and they won both of them comfortably.
Their 1st match of the day was against RN Podar school at the Parsee Cyclists ground wherein RN Podar surprisingly elected to bat first after winning the toss. Their decision to bat first somewhat backfired as they were bundled out for just 50 runs in 11.5 overs. Om Vadher with 2/8 in his 3overs continued his good form while the other bowlers also did a good job chipping in with wickets. IES chased down the score in just 7.5 overs with their opener Anuraag Nair remaining unbeaten on 26* off 24balls.
The 2nd match was against SVPB at the RTO Ground where in SVPB won the toss and elected to bowl first. Batting first, IES Scored 96/6 in 15 overs where in Jash Ganiga gave a start with his 20 while Bhavesh Modak at the middle order top scored with a quick 39 off 25balls (4fours, 1six). Chasing 97, SVPB succumbed to the strong bowling of IES as they were all out for just 34 runs in 13.1 overs. Shubham Kharat was simply impressive with the ball as he came up with great bowling figures of 3/6 in 3 overs. Medium pacer Om Vadher also looked stunning as he took 2/3 in 3 overs with a maiden followed by 2wkts for Palash. Eventually IES won the match by 62runs. IES won both the matches in a day and continued their dominance. Cricketgraph congratulates the winning team while wishes luck to all the boys for their upcoming matches.
