Shaw shines with an unbeaten 61* while Atif-Dake deliver in the finals as North Mumbai Panthers win T20 Mumbai’19
North Mumbai Panthers batting first could have been all out for under 120 runs had it not been their young opener Prithvi Shaw guiding the innings and batting till the end. With wickets falling at regular intervals, things were’nt looking that gloomy for North Mumbai boys but it was Prithvi scoring 61* off 55 balls alongwith Shasikant’s crucial 37 at no.6 which pushed the team total of 143/6 in 20 overs. The bowlers were quite impressive with Deepak Shetty being the pick of the lot taking 3/24 in 4 overs.
Defending a modest total of 144 in the high pressure finals, the pressure was definitely more on the bowlers to deliver and they did deliver with a bang! Sobo Supersonics were bundled out for 131 runs thanks to some brilliant bowling by pacers Prathamesh Dake (3/19) and Atif Attarwala (3/20). A combination of right and left arm fast bowler proved to be quite successful for North Mumbai Panthers as they conceded mere 39 runs and bagged 6 wkts in their spell of 8 overs combined.
North Mumbai Panthers win the finale by 13 runs while it was Shaw with the bat and Atif-Dake with the ball proving to be game changers in the finale.
