Maharaja trophy ksca t20 league: Cricket News & Match Updates

Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20 League: Mangaluru Dragons’ skipper Shreyas Gopal delivered a comprehensive performance at the Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20, guiding his side to a 52-run victory over Mysore Warriors. Macneil Noronha and Shivraj S. also contributed with the bat while Kranthi Kumar was the leading wicket-taker yet again with four wickets to ensure the Warriors were bowled out for 121 in pursuit of 174.

In the second innings, Shreyas Gopal struck in the first over to dismiss Karthik S.U. (8 off 4) and jolted the Warriors early, but Karthik C.A. (34 off 21) responded fiercely, smashing two sixes and a four off Gopal in the third over. The Dragons fought back, as Ronit More removed Venkatesh M. and Kranthi Kumar claimed Harshil Dharmani, to end the powerplay at 51/3.

Shreyas Gopal’s impact only grew from there as he snapped up Manish Pandey (12 off 7), who looked menacing after three fours, and Lankesh KS (11 off 12), to return figures of 3-36. Karthik C.A., who had soldiered on despite the flurry of wickets, was eventually bagged by Sachin Shinde to push the Warriors to 74/6 in 10 overs.   Read More...
