Hrishikesh Patkar’s fighting 88* saves Young Maharashtra from a defeat in the Kanga League ‘18

Khar Gymkhana batting first on their own ground declared their innings at 181/8 with Usman Malvi scoring an important 51 for his team. Every bowler from Young Mahrashtra chipped in with a wicket or two making it a good bowling perfomance.

Young Maharashtra in reply were struggling at 3/24 and 5/85 before Hrisikesh Patkar who came at no.5 rescued his team from the jaws of a defeat. Hrishikesh scored a match saving 88*(102 balls) which had 10 fours and 2 sixes in an innings where only 1 batsman apart from him managed to score in two digits.

Young Maharashtra were 158/7 at the end of the game’s play where the match ended in a draw while Hrishikesh’s innings reminded much of Laxman’s match saving knocks at the middle order during his playing days for India.
