Match Report (written by Samir Tikare)

TCC took on the current champions CCC on a hot humid Sunday at Shiloh. The TCC captain Aravind won the toss and decided to bat. TCC opened with Ravi Renganathan and Rajesh Virkar. Steady batting by Ravi, Samir, Syed and Aravind took TCC to 223/5 of the allocated 30 overs. The CCC fielding was under pressure in the last 3 overs and that resulted in several drop catches as TCC tried to push the run rate up.

The CCC openers Ahmed and Bijoy looked to hit from the first over and consequently did not last very long. CCC kept losing wickets at regular intervals as batsmen continued to play shots. Arun managed to hit a few effortless sixes before skying Samir Tikare to Ravi Renganathan at the extra cover boundary. Sanjay made the most of the early reprieve by Syed to remain not out with a well made 54 although he did have to depend on a runner in the later part of his innings. In the end CCC folded for 207 giving TCC a victory margin of 16 runs.

The only sad part of the game was that Shankar Subramanium suffered a hairline fracture while trying to catch Aravind on the extra cover fence and will be out of action for 4 to 6 weeks.

The game was played in good competative spirit. Congratulations to Samay and the other RCC umpire for doing an excellent job umpiring the game.
