By CG Reporter Last updated Jan 4, 2021

Played at Central Maidan, Thane, Dr. Rajesh Madhavi XI batting first posted a great total of 180/5 in 20 overs. Total of anything above 170 in a T20 match provides a psychological edge to the defending team as it gets quite difficult sometimes to chase in the 2^nd half. Opening the innings, Santosh Kudalkar provided a firing start to the innings top scoring with 65 off 47 balls (6 fours, 3 sixes). Sanjay Sansare’s late blitz of 24 balls 42 down the order further accelerated the innings to a very healthy total.

Chasing 181, AB Group 9333, Alibaugh managed to score 157/7 in 20 overs falling short of 24 runs to win the match. Even though Sanchit Mhatre (48) and Rupesh Mhatre (26 off 18) gave their best with a 69 run stand for the 7^th wicket, it did not proved to be enough for their team.

Former Ranji Trophy quick Sandeep Dahad showed age is just a number as he came up with a tight bowling spell of 3/21 in 4 overs proving to be the pick of the lot. Prahlad Mokashi (2/34) and Bhai Tawade (2/30) also bowled quite well as Dr.Rajesh Madhavi XI won the finals of 40+ S4 Cricket League’21 . Fast bowler Sandeep Dahad for his crucial spell was declared ‘Player of the Match’
