Tournament : Corporate Cricket Bash season 2 Venue : Air India Kalina, Mumbai
Final match : Mumbai Police Vs. Arbuda Agro Chemicals
Result : Mumbai Police won by 22 runs
The much anticipated final between Mumbai Police and Arbuda Agro Chemicals was played on Sunday night at Air India ground, Mumbai. Along with stars from both teams the occasion was also graced by bollywood stars Suniel Shetty and Sohail Khan.
Mumbai Police batted first. Its always a good strategy to put runs on the board in the final match. Thats what Mumbai Police tried doing. They did not target a huge score but a decent score and batted accordingly. None of the batsman could reach a half century due to some tight bowling by Arbuda team. But Mumbai Police ensured scoreboard kept ticking all the time.
All Top order batsmen contributed scoring at least 20 runs. Mahesh of Mumbai Police top scored 37 off 23 balls while P Sunil scored patient 36 at run a ball. Mumbai Police managed a good score of 154 for 4 wickets. Arbuda captain Mukesh Patel was the star bowler for Arbuda picking up 2 wickets conceding only 24 runs off his 4 overs.
Lot of hope were dependent on batsman in form Ankit Shastri ( who recently hit massive 170+ in T20 match). But to disappointment of all, Ankit only managed a score of 16 before he got out to A. Prashant. Despite losing him early Arbuda gave a good fight but fell short by 22 runs. Yogesh took 3 wickets while pankaj took 2 wickets for Mumbai Police.
Congratulations to Mumbai Police on winning season 2 of CCB.
