LiveSport Open T20 Challenge, Matchday 1: 13th September 2014

Matchday 1 at the 1st Edition of the LiveSport Open T20 Challenge is where our story begins! We launched our brand in a small yet significant way with an inauguration ceremony, and then with the temperature soaring on a hot and humid day, we cut straight to the action.

Match 1: DIT vs Vedic Naturals



T20 cricket is all about big shots and eye-catching excitement, and we expected no less on a lovely batting surface as DIT and Vedic Naturals took the field for the first match. Vedic Naturals won the toss and elected to bowl first, but what happened next stopped us dead in our track and gave us a real scare.

In the very first over of the match, Rahul (batting without a helmet) got hit on his eyebrow by a bouncer! We took him to the hospital, and we are really glad to report that he avoided any major injury. He got a few stitches and a swollen eye, but he came back to the field during the second innings.

DIT put up a brave fight, but ultimately Vedic Naturals won the match comfortably with three overs to spare. Here is the brief scorecard from the match:


DIT:                                         158 in 20 overs
Sabu 22 (19)
           
Vedic Naturals:                      159/2 in 16.2 overs
                                                Devraj 56* (26)
                                                Kohli 45* (37)
                                                Deepak Bist 2/25 (3)

Man of the match:                Devraj

Match 2: Foreway vs Globex International


The second match of the day was between Foreway and Globex International. Globex won the toss and also elected to bowl first. Once again, the decision proved to be an excellent one as they won comfortably with nearly 10 overs to spare.
