Saad bowled like a champion on our wicket with good pace and hitting the seam from home stead end.

Wicket was dry and nothing for bowlers in the afternoon specially medium pacers unless u can hit the deck.

Outfield was still fast other than few areas where the ball stops.

All in all good cricket and good fight to win this game.

chandru mixed the bowling well and everyone responded well.

Shiva is a great leggie in the making (poor guy got a bad LBW decision while batting)

 

Amit valia and Shiva bowled great spells of leg spin and supported saad, govind, guru and myself to make it all happen

 

Raj Raman was unfortunate to discontinue bowling after a one run over. Amit gave the break through desperately needed and continued a spell of 7 overs.

 

Special thanks to shiva for doing substitute fielding for 4 overs.

 

Thanks to shantanu for all support along with Gaja, ravi vellanki, thatha, mohit, harsh and jagat.

 

Excellent captaincy by chandru
