By Juili Ballal

On the back of Yug Hingu’s scintillating hat-trick, St. Joseph’s School registered a 126-run win over M.D. High School in Harris Shield. The game was played on November 15 at Oval Maidan, Mumbai.


Batting first, St. Joseph were bowled out for 173 in 34 overs. Ziyaan Chandinwala top-scored with 29, with Chinmay Rane making a valuable contribution of 26. On the other hand, Pratham was the pick of the bowlers for M.D. High School, as he claimed 38/4 in nine overs.

In reply, M.D. High School were bundled out for a paltry 47 in 13 overs, thanks to Yug Hingu, who wreaked havoc with the ball. Hingu scalped 6/3 in two overs as he picked up the wickets of consecutive balls to record a hat-trick. For M.D. High School, Pratham (15) was the only batter to score in double digits.
