Skipper Shamit leads from the front with 5 wkts and a crucial cameo in the Times Shield ‘18

Played between B.Arunkumar Sports Club and RBI at the Sunder CC Cross Maidan, B.Arunkumar SC won the toss and elected to bat first with an aim of capitalizing on the wicket and post a good total.

However, it wasn’t one of the fruitful decisions for as they were all out for 102 runs in 30.2 overs. The top order collapsed with Shamit at no.7 chipping in with 30 crucial runs taking the team’s total in the three digit figures.  Abubakar Siddiqui bowled well taking 4 wkts while the rest of the bowlers also bowled well.

B.Arunkumar SC were in no mood to allow RBI to win the match easily as Shamit Shetty puzzled the batsman with his left arm spin taking 5/29 in 17.3 overs with 7 maidens reducing RBI to just 92 runs all out in what turned out to be a low scoring thriller.

B.Arunkumar Sports Club won the match and it was certainly captain leading from the front.
