Hari won the toss and elected to field in the 16 over game at Cypress Canyon Ground against RBCC (Sony).
Srinivas (new player) and Saran opened the bowling. Srinivas bowled out swing / out-cutter deliveries at will and was also aided by the slippery conditions on the ground. Ajay, Kiran and Hari were the others to share the bowling responsibility. Srinivas bowled Narayan on a delivery that was well pitched up and on middle stump but then moved ever so slightly to peg back off stump. About three catches were dropped and the fielding overall was not as sharp as expected. The early morning conditions resulted in the ball not travelling to the boundary and made scoring difficult.
The opposition batsmen lost three wickets at the top but opening batsman Hari and Ram showed resistance thereafter. Score at the end of 8 overs was 33 but then reached 61 in 12 overs. Thereafter our bowlers pegged the scoring rate to restrict RBCC to 78/7 in 16 overs. Opening batsman Hari from RBCC, top scored with 27 (31b, 1*4).
Srinivas (2), Saran (2), Ajay (2) were among the wickets.
Narasaiah and Spandan provided an opening partnership of 24 in 4 overs aided by a flurry of wides by the RBCC opening bowling pair. Narasaiah (12, 21b, 1*4), Parag (11 in 24b), Hari (11 in 17b) chipped in with a few runs to take the score beyond 60. Suresh coming in at the fall of Hari's wicket scored a brisk 14 in 13b. We lost 3 wickets with 3 runs needed for victory but in the end we made it with 4 balls to spare.
