Tracy united won the toss and coming after a win against UC warriors looked a confident unit. Tracy won the toss and elected to bat on a good wicket with a slow outfield but good enough to score 160 to 200 runs. Raman and Bobby started for Tracy United. Scored 16 in 3 overs thanks to good help of wides. Raman was dropped first ball of Candy (chandrodaya's) bowling but got bowled trying to step out to satish who was bowling good pace. Bobby gave a catch to Long on trying to clear. Amar and Hemi played some very good cricket and Bees had to change strategy due to score being 42 runs in 8 overs for 2 wickets. Amar hit some clean shots. Hemi got out to beauty bowled by Mihir which seamed away. Laddi tried his best to get partnerships going but everyone were in a hurry and due to discipled bowling for 21 overs with only 3 extras from 17th over (70 runs) to 38 over and gave away only 28 runs. Sujesh took 4 wickets for 6 runs and well supported by prumjot with another dream spell of 5 overs for 3 runs and Mihir who has been very consistent and giving all important break throughs in every game bowled 10 overs for just 18 runs. SCCC bees did well to recover and cleaned up tracy united for a very low total.
Also SCCC Bees bowled 22 overs in 1 hr and according to partha it's a record

Lunch was taken after 12 overs of batting.

Santa Clara Bees Started Batting with Prumjot and Dawood again going great guns chasing a very modest total. Dawood Pulled and hooked at will against tracy united opening bowler abbas. dawood got out in 7th over scoring 20 (26 balls), Abbas took a low diving catch at mid off. Prumjot after getting a good start again played an expansive stroke against his odds and got out to a good catch by Wicket keeper Jodha. Ravi shankar and Chandru looked all set to chase it down since run rate wasn't an issue and all it required was to bat through. Ravi shankar glided one to Gully where they again took a good catch. Tracy united fielding and catching has been top notch and if these kids put runs on board it might be tough to chase since they are sharp in the field. Chandru and Rohit started building another partneship. Score was flowing since Tracy united bowled 24 wides within the 17 overs. Kuldeep got chandru out stumped. krish Joined Rohith Ramkumar who started slowly but was in sublime touch and hit some glorious shots down the ground. Rohith Ramkumar remained not out on 27 and SCCC Bees won by 6 wickets in the 21st over. krish remained not out with rohith.

Over All good game of cricket.

Umpiring by Ahiraj and Partha was very consistent. I Am very impressed with Adhiraj who was very focussed with his job. Great to see some good umpires in our league.

MOM: Sujesh Pulikkal (8 Overs-3 Maidens -6 Runs -4 wickets)
MVP: Rohith Ramkumar (27 Not Out (31 balls) - 3*4, 1*6)

by

63 runs

Kings started well with Tushar and Kitty playing blinders and scoring at 150 strike rate. Kitty playing some spectacular shots at a fast SCCC outfield where fielders didn't even stand a chance. Dalvir was the hero who grinded his 30 not out at one end. Zubair bowled well along with hasan and jagat.
SCCC Sox were never in hunt till jagat unleashed 4 boundaries in a row. He just played 5 balls for his 16. Run rate kept climbing and tushar bowled a dream spell taking good 5 wickets. Also 3 run outs didn't help the cause as well. Tameem started well till he got run out to a bad mix-up with hasan and Ranjit looked in good touch till he go out. Hasan played a very good innings to give a fight to kings and had 45 runs last wicket partnership with ismail who scored 13 not out.

Kings deserve this for the way they batted and bowled and outplayed SOX.

Match Report:

SCCC II started well with 13 runs in 2 overs but prumjot was given LBW to a hawk eye decision. There after it was bad state of affairs. Mahesh got chandru LBW following ball. krish got a beauty which swung in long way trying to leave and got bowled. Dawood and Karteek stitched in a decent partnership till score read 57. Chandu. S walked in Next and didn't last long and got caught and bowled Jayanth who bowled a tidy spell. Score was at 62 for 5 in 18 overs and SCCC Bees looked in trouble. Sujesh and Karteek played with caution and build a solid partnership of 72 runs in next 20 overs. Little karteek showed immense maturity in the way he build his innings with stanford bowling good areas. Their 44 extras costed them the game. Sujesh got bowled for 35 (45 balls) to prithvi who bowled a good 10 over spell and the collapse started again. SCCC II Lost Mihir, Karteek who looked settled scoring 8 runs, Sushant in quick sucession and innings ended with 175 runs in 42 overs. Stanford did not drop any catches since there were 3 LBWs and 4  bowleds. Rishi caught 2 behind the wicket and jayanth caught one off his own bowling. Pranay, Jayanth, prithvi and Pranay bowled really well but with no luck. Mahesh is MVP for taking 5 wickets and bowled a great spell.

Stanford Innings started with lot of confidence thinking with a super fast outfield the score should be easy to chase. Rohan chandran blessed them and left before stanford started batting and confirmed that it's easy chase and Rishi alone can handle it :). SCCC Bees started with rohan's word of discouragement and ended up winning by 63 runs. We wish rohan come by for every SCCC Bees game. Vinay Suri and jayanth put 12 runs for the first wicket in 5 overs. Jayanth got bowled to a beauty from chandu which swung back in. Prithvi looked good for the amount he spent at the crease but got out to a very good catch at slips by Prumjot. Rishi started slowly as usual and a tough wicket for the opponent especially in a low scoring game. Rishi got plumb in front scoring 20 of 55 balls for a ball which skid through from Mihir after attempting twice to get out who bowled a beautiful spell of 10 overs in a trot just giving away 26 runs. Runs had dried up and stanford from 43 for 2 in 11 overs slipped to 74 for 3 in 26 overs. Vinay fell after a patient and well grinded 25 runs (60 balls) .  Mahesh, subbu, sumanth . karthik, karan had no chance of chasing it down due to very disciplined bowling by Bees where there are only 11 extras including 5 byes in the 45 overs they bowled. Highlight was prumjot and krish bowling with field in and just giving away 4 runs in 5 overs of batting powerplay between 36 and 40 overs. prumjot yet again turned out to be unplayable and took 3 wickets for 5 runs in 6 overs. Krish bowled tight and just gave away 7 runs in 5 overs. Stanford needed 63 runs in last 5 overs and run rate had gone upto 12 plus a over chasing 175 in 50.

Overall good game of cricket and i guess Rohan jinxed his own team since he was dropped from stanford-I :)- That's what the Stanford team Said !!! - Just Kidding

MoM - Sujesh.P.
MVP - Mahesh. K.

Thanks,
