Jatin Jetwa’s 185 powers St. Xavier’s High School to a win in Harris Shield

By Juili Ballal

Riding on Jatin Jetwa’s power-packed 185, St. Xavier’s High School posted a mammoth 303 in 45 overs against St. Stanislaus during the Harris Shield tournament. Jetwa took the opposition bowlers to the cleaners with his incredible hitting. On the other hand, for St. Stanislaus, Aryan Sethi was the pick of the bowlers as he scalped 58/3.

In reply, St. Stanislaus could only score 187 as they were bundled out in 34 overs. They lost the game by a massive margin of 116 runs. It was Aryan Sethi again with the bat for St. Stanislaus who stood tall. His gritty 94 went in vain as his team failed to chase down the total. On the other hand, St. Xavier’s Jatin Jetwa (34/3) and Bhavik (30/3) were the most successful bowlers.

St. Xavier’s Jatin Jetwa’s brilliant all-round performance steered his team to a 116-run win over St. Stanislaus in Harris Shield.
