Varun Sood’s fifer helps Bank of Baroda win in MCA Corporate Trophy’ 22

By Juili Ballal

On March 9, Bank of Baroda took on Reserve Bank of India in Mumbai during the MCA (Mumbai Cricket Association) Corporate Trophy tournament. The Reserve Bank of India won the toss and elected to bat first.

Batting first, Reserve Bank of India were bowled out for a paltry 75 in 31 overs. Varun Sood wreaked havoc with the ball for Bank of Baroda as he scalped 5-32. Sood ran through the opposition line up in a jiffy and was duly rewarded for his consistency with line and length. Kunal Thorat was the other bowler, who picked up 4-30, making useful contributions with the ball. 

In reply, Bank of Baroda chased down the target with ease as they won the match by nine wickets. They completed the formalities in just 10 overs. Rohan Kadam top scored with an unbeaten 41 to lead the run chase from the front. The Reserve Bank of India’s bowlers did not have a great day at the office as they managed to pick just one wicket.

Bank of Baroda’s Varun Sood was the top performer with the ball in the match as he scalped five wickets to help his side win by a margin of nine wickets against Reserve Bank of India during the MCA Corporate Trophy.
