Excellent game and well deserved win for davis for the fight they
showed. Arun started with few good hits but jwalant cleaned up the top
order including shevar. Jay played sensibly and was keeping the score
board moving. Davis lost 5 wickets for 83 runs in 24 overs. Balbir
came in and chanced his arm against imran and hit few good shots and
the crucial partnership of 40 runs came between balbir and Anit who
held one end. Shehzad chipped in with few runs and they were all out
for 167 in 46 overs. Jwalant, Imran and sathya bowled well and picked
up wickets.
Santa Clara-II started the chase badly by poor shot selection and lost
4 wickets for 10 runs. This included the run out of Harsh who was
batting well by a direct hit from the super man RAY when batsman took
a start from non-striker end for a run. Dawood and sujesh had a 40
runs partnership and was looking on course to chase the score. dawood
got out to shevar who gave the break through with his off spinners
after doing his wicket keeping duty. In walks Amit the batsman in form
who have been scoring consistently for santa clara-II for the past 4
games. Amit and sujesh had a partnership of 30 runs and Aman got
sujesh out LBW. Jwalant and amit had a sweet little agressive 30 runs
partnership. This was looking good to seal the game with 12 overs and
60 runs on a fast outfield with 3 wickets in hand. jwalant got out LBW
and Sushant ran through the last 2 batsman to end up with 3 important
wickets to seal the game for Davis. Santa Clara -II got all out for
140 with 5.3 overs to spare and 27 runs required. Amit remained not
out @ 40 without any support.
All credit to davis boyz for fighting hard till the end and winning the game.
Good umpiring by brian and Vijay from san mateo.
