0

The month of November witnessed some fantastic cricket. November was also a great month with rigorous cricket tournaments like Kanga, Police Shield, Times and Giles shield being played in full flow. There were some extra ordinary matches as well as some exquisite bowling spells which invented our faith in Indian Cricket that ‘Yes the cricket of India has a promising future ahead’

There were a lot of good bowling spells in November in different moments under different pressure situations and hence it was difficult to shortlist. Eventually after a grueling session of selecting the top 5, we came up with this 6 spells which literally stood out in November 2017.

Joint 5th– Badrey Alam (Right arm fast)- 7/22, Parkophene CC vs Karnataka Sporting Assn. , Young Comrade Shield Tournament ‘17

Played at the Cricket Club of India (CCI) in Mumbai, the police shield tournament witnessed amazing performances right from its opening day and one of the best came out from this talented fast bowler Badrey Alam who rattled the opposition with his genuine fast bowling. Parkophene Cricekters won the toss and elected to bowl first in order to restrict CCI to a low total.

Their decision was spot on as they bundled out CCI boys in their own turf for just 51runs in 17.5 overs with only 2players managing to get in the two figure mark. The bowler who destroyed the batting line up single handedly was this right arm fast bowler Badrey Alam Khan who came up with exceptional bowling figures of 7/22 in 9overs. Badrey bowled consistently in the right areas with the right amount of pace which reaped excellent rewards for him. In fact over the years he has proved that he can lead the bowling attack as a reliable 1st seamer for any team he plays for. Badrey was also supported well by Sagar who took 3wkts. Eventually his team chased down the score in style and won the match by 9wkts, all thanks to badrey!

 

5. Soham Sabnis (Right arm fast)- 7/11, St.Francis vs Gokuldham High School, Harris Shield Tournament ‘17

Played at the Bharat CC, St. Francis who batted first were hardly aware about the storm which was about to hit them. Fast bowlers Soham Sabnis came up with awesome /bowling figures of 7/11in 7overs(2maidens). Soham at a very young age displayed pace and bounce coupled with good line and length which was nothing but impressive. In fact it was the brutal spell of Soham which restricted St. Francis to just 33all out which his team chased down and won by 10wkts!

 

4. Yogesh Dicholkar (Left-arm spinner)- 8/24, Matunga Gymkhana vs Taki CC, Kanga League ‘17

The man who bagged 33wkts in Kanga this season continues to amaze us with his spin as he has consistently been a genuine wicket taker. His last outing was at Dadkar maidan on 26th November where his team Matunga Gymkhana were all out for 123. Even though defending a low total, their spin spearhead Yogesh came up with match winning bowling figures of 8/24 which restricted Taki CC to just 112runs all out and win a thriller of a match.

3. Aryan Dalal- 7/13 (Left-arm Spinner)- All Saints High School vs Singhania High School, Under 14 Ghantali Cup

There is no denying the fact that this boy has been proving his mettle since a very young age that he is made for the bigger things in cricket. Aryan continued to impress at the All Saints Ground vs All Saints School as he took a fantastic 7/13 including a hat-trick which made them all out for mere 48runs. His team Singhania eventually chased down the score in just 7overs and won the match by 9wkts and it was Aryan who stood out in that match once again.

 

2. Anzar Mirza- (6/8, Right arm fast), Abhinav Vidya Mandir vs Anjuman Islam, Harris Shield ‘17

India has always been in a shortage of genuine pace bowling talent and when such young kids perform like this, it just renews our hopes that India has a lot of talent in every nook and corner.

15yr old Anzar Mirza who is looking so promising with the ball in the Harris Shield is surely showing his mettle with the ball. Anzar’s youthfulness and energy is almost the same as Bangaldesh’s Mustafizur Rehman or Pakistan’s Mohamad Amir who all are young fast bowlers. Fresh from 6/17 in the 1st match he played against St. Joseph, this time his team Anjuman Islam clashed against Abhinav Vidya Mandir,  Borivali at the Oval Maidan where in Anjumam Islam won the toss and elected to bat first. His team Anjuman Islam notched up a healthy total of 259runs. However, the opposition were unaware on what was about to come as fast bowler Anzar literally ran through the entire batting line up with one of the best bowling figures of this season as he took 6/8 in 10.1 overs which restricted Abhinav Vidya Mandir to just 72runs. The zone which Anzar was in and the line and length at which he was bowling was really impressive for his age which eventually helped his team win the match by 187 runs.

 

And Finally the No.1-

 

1. Daksh Aggarwal 11/35 (Left-arm spinner)- 11/35, Goregaon SC vs Sunrise SC, Kanga League 17

 

Have we ever seen a cub threatning a group of lions? Sounds a bit funny, isnt it? But Kanga League almost got to see a similar case when a 16yr old boy attacked like an adult predator against a team consisting of players bigger than him in every aspects. Played at the GSC, Goregaon SC elected to bowl first and restricted sunrise SC to just 77runs, 16yr old prodigy Daksh Agarwal caught everyone’s attention as he came up with match winning bowling figures of 7/20 against a team which had players almost between to 23 to 30yrs of age.  It’s always tough to physically and mentally cope up against players who are bigger than you in terms of age and fitness and Daksh troubling the opposition with ease was simply commendable as he was the youngest player in that match. Goregaon in reply declared their innings on 143/8 in their 1st innings.

Sunrise SC were again given the trouble as they were almost all out at 58/9 before the end of the game’s play in the 2nd innings. Daksh’s attack with the ball continued as he took another 4wkts for just 14runs in 14overs (7maidens) taking his tally of bowling figures to a stunning 11/35 in 27overs (10maidens) in the match. Goregaon SC won the match comfortably but it was this young bowler Daksh’s perfomance which raised the eyebrows and became the talking point of the match.
