Prasad Pawar (131) and Sagar Mishra (109) ensure a Semi-finals berth for Parkophene Cricketers in the Young Comrade Shield ‘19
Parkophene Cricketers after being made to bat first on CCI ground scored an impressive 370/10 in 89.1 overs. After a decent start by the openers, it was the experienced Prasad Pawar and in-form Sagar Mishra at the middle order stitching a 203 run stand for the 4th wicket. Prasad went on to score a classy 131 off 151 balls (10 fours, 1 six) while Sagar Mishra with a 109 in 155 balls (6 fours) was equally impressive as both the batsman ensured their team was in a commanding position.
CCI despite their in-form opener Ajinkya Patil’s 120 fell short by 69 runs as they lacked batsman who could convert their starts into big scores and partnerships. Ajinkya has been in good nick and batted till the 74th over but it was the co-ordinated efforts of Parkophene bowlers which took the upper hand in the match.
Parkophene Cricketers now reach the Semi-finals of the tournament and will clash the young and promising team of Shivaji Park Gymkhana.
