Sourabh Singh hits an aggressive 154 to steers SVIS to a win in the Khichadiya Khar Tournament ‘18

Played at the Sydenham College, Oval Maidan between SVIS Borivali and Abhinav Vidyamandir, Abhinav Vidyamandir won the toss and elected to field first with an aim of restricting SVIS to a low total and chase it down successfully.

Opening the innings, Saurabh and Malhar(38 off 33) gave a flying start while the aggressive Saurabh kept on counter attacking as he went on to score a electrifying knock of 154 coming off mere 97 deliveries. Not only did Saurabh smashed some elegant boundaries in his 20 fours which he smashed but he also indulged in good running between the wickets which kept the scoreboard ticking. Saurabh kept the bowlers on toes while Aryan Badhe at no.6 chipped in with a quick 75 off 47balls (13fours) taking the team total to a mammoth 427/6 in 45 overs. Bhavesh Patel leaked runs but came up with 3wkts from ABhinav Vidyamandir.

Abhinav School may have certainly felt the pressure of chasing as they managed to score only 137/9 in 37 overs. Bhavesh Patel who took 3wkts also scored a solid 52 while Aayush Karwal chipped in with 45. Aryan Badhe was the pick of the bowlers with 2/10 while Om Sawant and Siddhesh Jadhav took 2wkts each. SVIS Borivali won the match by 290runs & it was surely Saurabh whose attacking batting remained the highlight perfomance of the match.
