Bohra Cricketers batting first were least aware on what was about to hit them as they were bundled out for 49 runs in 12.2 overs. It was a huge batting collapse from Bohra Team with only one player i.e their opener managing to score in double digits. Left-arm Spinner Yash Chavan was simply exceptional with the ball as he returned with amazing bowling figures of 5/6 in 3.2 overs including a maiden. Spinner Bharat Patil also bowled well taking 3 wkts for 11 runs in his spell of 3 overs.
Chasing 50 runs was a mere formality for Sainath Team as they finished off the match in the 13th over winning the finals by 8 wkts. Shikhar Thakur at no.4 remained unbeaten on 25* off 23 balls.
