STMicro vs Cargo Alliiance : Luminous Cup'06
Tournament - Luminous Cup (Corporate Cricket) 2006
Match : ST vs Cargo Alliance
Date : 11th Feb., 06
Venue : AAI Ground, Palam
Toss : Cargo Alliance won the toss and elected to bat
Another day, another match , another opposition but same ideas. 'Relentless' is the only word that could describe ST Cricket Team's attitude on field. Ready to play under any conditions, against any team, on any ground with the same passion and commitment. The team was without their premium batsmen such as Das, Mudit, Vij and equally important bowler in Abhishek, but the team was full of confidence and self belief. The stage was all set for the first knock-out match of the tournament with odds against our team.
Cargo Alliance won the toss & elected to bat on a batsman friendly wicket. Our opening bowler Nitin bowled his heart out in a spell which could only be termed as a fiery spell . He bowled consistently at a speed more than 130km/hr and finished his spell by bowling 5 overs on the trot giving away just 19 runs and picking 1 wicket on the way. Ashish supported him well and gave away only 18 runs and picked 2 crucial wickets.
Sudip and Lalit came as first change bowlers and they truly backed-up the good work done by our opening bowlers. Lalit bowled 5 disciplined overs giving away 12 runs and taking 1 wicket. The bowler of the day was indeed Sudip who not only bowled miserly , but also picked 4 wickets in quick time. He bowled like masterly craftsman weaving his magic spell. Jeswani in his only over picked 2 wickets without giving any run and Cargo Alliance were bundled out for 80 runs in 19.4 overs. It was a commendable show by all our bowlers and fielding was also upto the mark when it was needed the most.
A great self belief & hunger to win saw commendable performances from there on. Bharat once again rose to the occasion & build the innings. He played like an artist, meticulously planning his innings. Each & every shot & every single that he took was carefully measured. Hash got out after making quick 5 runs. Then Jeswani joined Bharat and got out after scoring 3 boundaries in 1 over. ST was 30 for 2 at that stage. Narwal got in next and while he gathered runs playing each ball with great precision, Bharat on the other hand stuck to the task. He kept on rotating the strike. & never let any bowler dominate him. In the end , ST won the match without any more hiccups with Bharat making 40 runs off 32 balls and Narwal making 19 runs off 16 deliveries.
A great team effort saw ST through winning the match comfortably. The seniors & the new comers are synchronizing very well. Having played together for last 2 months , all the players are working in good synergy & look ready to take on any opposition in the coming matches.
