Datamatics Global delivered a commanding all-round performance to defeat BMC by 71 runs in their Times Cricket Shield encounter, with Yatin Madhavi producing a breathtaking knock that set the tone for the match.

After BMC won the toss and chose to field first, Datamatics made full use of the conditions. The innings was anchored by a solid partnership and explosive stroke play, as Datamatics piled up an imposing 336 runs in 45 overs the highest team total recorded so far in the D Division this season.

Upendra Yadav played the perfect supporting role at the top, scoring a composed 86 off 101 balls, decorated with 9 boundaries and 3 sixes. While his innings provided stability, it was Yatin Madhvi who completely took control of the game. Batting with remarkable intent and confidence, Madhavi smashed a stunning 163 runs off just 91 deliveries. His knock included 11 fours and an astonishing 13 sixes, leaving the BMC bowlers with no answers and the spectators thoroughly entertained.

Chasing a steep target of 337, BMC fought hard but were never quite able to match the required momentum. Despite a few resistance efforts in the middle order, they were eventually restricted to 265 runs in their allotted overs. The Datamatics bowlers stayed disciplined, ensuring the asking rate remained out of reach throughout the chase.

With this comprehensive 71-run victory, Datamatics Global stamped their authority in the tournament, driven by a standout batting display and a collective bowling effort. Yatin Madhvi’s explosive century will be remembered as one of the finest knocks of the season so far in the Times Cricket Shield.
