JSW’s Amit Mishra wreaked havoc with the ball as he claimed a fifer against Sun Pharma during their Times Shield clash. It was the first five-wicket haul in this edition of the Times Shield. He also accounted for a hat-trick.

Winning the toss and electing to bat first, JSW posted 180 in 33.5 overs. Ishaque top-scored with 39 for JSW. On the other hand, Roshan and Aashish were the most successful bowlers for Sun Pharma as they snapped four wickets apiece.

In reply, Sun Pharma made heavy work of the run chase as they were skittled for a paltry 66 in 29.1 overs. Shrinivas (14) and Sagar (14) fought hard but failed to see their side home. For JSW, Amit Mishra was the star performer with the ball with a fifer, including a hat-trick. Ishaque contributed with the ball, too, with his four-fer.
