Team WNS wins the ‘F’ Div title of the Times Shield ’18 on the back a great teamwork throughout the season

 

Played at the Bengal Club, Shivaji Park, the promising CIPLA team had a big challenge of facing the powerful and consistent WNS who have performed really well throughout the season. It was the all important finals of the Times Shield where in WNS won the toss and elected to field first.

Their decision to field first was spot on as CIPLA managed to score only a 182/8 in 45 overs which is quite a modest score to defend against an in-form team like WNS. Even a score of 182 would have not been possible had Govind(43) and Jagdish Mali (56) would have not stitched a partnership at the middle order. Aditya Nikam bowled really well taking 3/31 while Ketan Kharat and Mandar Garude also bagged two wickets each to make it a collectively good bowling perfomance.

WNS on the other hand chased down the score in just 37.5 overs as they won the match by 5wkts. Opener Ajinkya Patil gave a good start with 39runs while it was Mohd Asif Khan (56) & Shivprakash (38) at the middle order doing the job for their team and clinching them towards the victory line.
