UCOL
Bowlers Shut out Valley Boys in Rapid Time
Valley Boys had played some good cricket leading up to this
match, although they hadn’t been able to put together a consistent enough
performance to register a win. They hoped for better in this quarter-final
match, but were completely overpowered by a strong UCOL bowling attack.
Sajid, Waseem Sofi and Wasin were all removed by seamers
Amanjeet and Dinesh in the Power Play overs to give UCOL the early advantage.
Dinesh in particular bowled an excellent spell of accurate seam bowling up
front, and Valley Boys never recovered from the early hits. When off-spinner
Aman Kangra clean bowled Saurav off a delivery that turned sharply into the
batsmen, it started a sensational collapse in which Valley Boys lost their last
7 wickets for 9 runs to fold up for 53. Left-arm spinner Sanjay Saini delivered
a spin master-class, grinding Valley Boys to a halt with his deadly cocktail of
flight and turn. He returned figures of 3.3 – 2 – 4 – 2. He was well supported
by off-spinner Sandeep, who returned with figures of 2 – 1 – 7 – 3.
UCOL sailed past the target of 54 in under 5 overs, Jerry
knocking off 34 in 13 balls. Sanjay Saini walked away with the Man of the Match
award for his spell of left-arm spin.
