Ankush Jaiswal’s all-round performance helped MIG register a 29-run win over CCI in Purushottam Shield. MIG won the toss and elected to bat first at Parsee Gymkhana in Mumbai during the match that was played on May 6 and 7.

Riding on Kevin Almeida’s 95, MIG posted 232 runs in 58.3 overs. While Almeida provided the perfect start to MIG, Ankush Jaiswal ended the innings on a high. Jaiswal mustered 48 runs off as many balls, including two boundaries and five sixes. On the other hand, CCI’s Sanket Yashwante was the pick of the bowlers as he scalped 5-66 in 19 overs.

In reply, CCI fought hard as they scored 203 runs in 65.5 overs. Ajinkya Patil top scored with 64-ball 44 with Akash Parmar chipping in with 44-ball 31. On the other hand, MIG’s Jaiswal, who had a good outing with the bat, starred with the ball as he claimed six wickets. The off spinner wreaked havoc with the ball bagging 6-47 in 20.5 overs, including four maidens.

A match winning all-round performance from Ankush Jaiswal helped MIG script a win against CCI in Purushottam Shield.
