Sportsmen CC clinch a thriller win as Shailendra Godekar and Kaiwalya Patil stitch an epic partnership in Kanga League ‘18
Remember Laxman stitching partnerships with the lower order and winning Test matches against Australia and South Africa. Well it was a similar sort of a match where the top order was collapsed and the match was about to get over before the script got changed in a matter of few sessions!
Young Muslim CC batting first scored 132runs in 43.3overs and Sportsmen CC Vasai were 9/52 at one point about to lose the match anytime. However, that was not the case as Shailendra Godekar at no.9 and Kaiwalya Patil at no.11 stitched a partnership of 115runs surpassing Muslim CC’s 1st innings score. Shailendra played freely with dominance as he scored 78 off mere 40balls which had 4fours and as many as 8sixes while Kaiwalya scored an unbeaten 44* off 32balls. It was one of the best partnerships a cricket lover would see this season as they helped their team not only escape a big defeat but helped Sportsmen CC win the match on 1st innings lead.
The 115run stand between Kaiwalya and Shailendra for 10wth wicket was also a record 10th wicket partnership in Kanga League.
