Date 7/16/11
Weather. Bright Sun Shine .Hot but not so humid, around 80-85degrees. Very Quick Outfield
For those that missed today, today was one of the most strange, interesting, chirpy and may be in some ways one of the best days at BJCC Cricket and a nightmare for bowlers in general. All the bowlers except Kalpesh were taken apart at some point. Marut back from his trip and brought some grips and sweets. thank you
Match 1
Teams

11th over was for Juniors batsman to be bowled by Juniors
Team A 75/5 11 Overs
Team B 75/5 in 10.3 Overs
Match Tied
Siva won the toss and decided to bat first. Marut back from his trip was in great touch opened the innings with Ranjan. Kalpesh Started the bowling giving away 4 runs but both Marut and Ranjan took plenty of 3s from the next over bowled by Vivek. Score had reached 24 in three overs for the loss of no wicket with Marut hitting a four . Both batsman looked good. Finally in the 4th over Mukund bowled Marut . Siva came in and kept the score going . Vivek got rid of Ranjan in the next over and in came free flowing Sachin. Score had reached 40 in 6 overs with Sachin and Mangesh at the crease. Sachin got seven runs in the next over by Naveed and made his intentions clear . Kalpesh bowled a very tight 8th over giving away only three and score 50 in 8. Then Sachin and Mangesh took Naveed and Mukund to cleaners taking 25 of the last two overs. Between them they hit 5 fours and Sachin stayed true to his name of Sachin Tendulkur. Great hitting by these two but all of the batsman were in good form from top to bottom and everyone chipped in with 12-15 runs with Sachin top scorer with 18.
Except Kalpesh no one could stop any of their batsman and they scored 75 in 10 overs. Anirudh and Aakash bowled the last over to Mehul and showed the seniors way to bowl with not giving any run.
Team B opened with Naveed and Kalpesh. Ranjan and Viral opened the bowling. The start was good and 15 came of the first two overs with a reverse sweep 6.Mangesh bowled the third over and gave away only 4 runs but both Naveed and Kalpesh kept 1s and 2s going and Sachin came to bowl the 4th over. He was taken for 14 in that over by Kalpesh and Naveed before getting the wicket of Kalpesh. Score was 33 after 4 overs. Naveed declared and Vivek and Mukund joined. Mukund was bolwed in the next over by Marut( Mukund bowled again, where is the wall like defense, but asking rate was high) and Abhay joined Vivek. Siva only gave two runs in next over and Ranjan got the wicket of Abhay in his next over so score was 45 after 7 overs . Naveed joined Vivek and Mangesh came to bowl. This is where the confusion started. Mangesh hit Naveed where no one wants to get hit . Luckily some speed was taken off when the ball edged the bat, so it was not the worst case scenario. Kalpesh who was the scorer came to run for Naveed and then for that over with all others fielding and Naveed lying in the back no one was scoring. But 7 runs were taken of that over. Team A was still in good position. Viral gave away 5 runs in the next over so score was 57 in 9 overs with one over left for the seniors and one for the juniors. Siva came to bowl the 10th over and Naveed faced first 5 balls of the over taking 11 of the five balls with 2 fours. Vivek came to face the last ball of that over and he was able to hit it for 6 behind on leg side. It went through the woods and hit the road. So 17 runs came of that over and score was 74 with Juniors still to play one over . 2 runs needed to win. Mehul bowled the last over to Anirudh and Aakash and there was a run out without any addition to the score . Then one run was taken before another run out and match was tied. Mehul, Anirud and Aakash were all up to the task.
A very good game in the end .
Second Match
Teams were shuffled as Mehul and Co went biking
Team A: Siva, Ranjan, Mangesh, Viral,Marut
Team B : Naveed, Mukund, Kalpesh, Vivek, Abhay
Sachin was common
Team A:78/3 in 10 overs
Team B : 38 all out in 6.3 overs
Team A won the toss and decided to bat with Siva and Ranjan and opening the batting. Naveed opened the bowling and 7 runs were taken of the first over.
Kalpesh bowled a very tight second over while getting wicket of Siva who was caught deep in the legside by Marut who took an excellent catch running backbut after that Mangesh came in and then it was just like we have seen it so many times Ranjan and Mangesh Show for a while. They took all the bolwers to cleaners except Kalpesh and Vivek. Score had reached 41 in 5 overs. Ranjan declared and Marut came in but no respite for bowlers. The score still kept going . When Kalpesh came to bowl the 8th over score 50. Mangesh declared and Sachin came to bat. In 8th Marut hit the best timed shot of the day . He just flicked the ball and somehow the ball went for 4. on leg side . I was fielding there and when the ball was coming i thought this is only 1 or 2 but it just kept going
Sachin delcared and Viral and Ranjan came to bat.Ranjan who now looks like has put the ghost of not making any runs after coming back from declaration was into action again. 16 runs were taken of the last over and Team A again had reached near eighty. 78 was the final score with Ranjan scoring 35 and he was well supported by his partner in Crime Mangesh and Marut.Both Ranjan and Mangesh remained not out. In this innings except Kalpesh and Vivek all bowlers were butchered.
Team B opened with Vivek and Abhay . Viral opened the bowling and gave only one run in the first over.Then Vivek hit a straight six of Ranjan in the next over but he top edged a second attempt to leg side where Marut took another good catch on the boundary.With Vivek gone things did not look that good but Mukund who joined Abhay had other ideas.
They took 14 of the next over with both of them hitting boundaries. Score was 22 in 3 and the innings had momentum again but Mukund against the plot got himself run out courtesy Siva Direct hit and the innings could not get any momentum after that. Mangesh got Naveed in the next over caught by Siva at the Straight boundary and score was 30 in 5 overs. Marut got Abhay in the next over and Sachin came in to Join Kalpesh. High hopes for Sachin but Siva bowling the next over changed the field after the first ball and Sachin
obliged by hitting it straight into his hands. Kalpesh was the last man standing, run rate was not so bad and Kalpesh had plenty of overs so there still was a chance for Team B
But then perhaps the strangest dismissal happened and i doubt anything in the future will cross that.
Kalpesh hit the ball straight for an easy single.Siva who was bowling went back to field Sachin was running with Kalpesh. Sachin thought that he does not need to run. Kalpesh kept calling him and finally he responded but he was strolling to the keepers end thinking that even if they hit with him not reaching the crease Kalpesh wont get out as Kalpesh had already made it on the bowlers end. Siva hit the stumps and Sachin was stunned to find out that Kalpesh was run out. Like i said in the beginning it was some strange sort of a day with all happening. We all assumed that Sachin would know the rules in that situation and no one bothered to tell him but he thought that since Kalpesh is the only batsman bowling side can only achieve a run out on the end that Kalpesh is running towards so he took it easy.
In the end a convincing win for Team A
Match 3
Anirudh, Aakash and Mehul returned and a 5 over plus one over for Juniors per side third game was played
Teams
Team A:Siva(Captain),Ranjan,Mangesh,Viral,Marut,Sachin, Mehul Jr
Team B:Naveed(Captain),Kalpesh,Vivek, Mukund,Abhay,Anirudh Jr, Aakash Jr
Team B 25/6 in 5.3 overs
Team A 22 all out in 5 overs
This time Team B won the toss and opened with Vivek and Kalpesh. Viral opened the bowling and Kalpesh was out for a duck perhaps still thinking how he got run out in the last game . Mukund joined Vivek and score was 5 after first over and then Mangesh came to bowl the second over. How am i going to explain this over. Get ready , let me try to see what i can remember and understand from the score sheet
I have to perhaps write what happened on all six bowls so those who were not there can understand it The first three bowls were actually normal. With the third ball Mangeh got the key wicket of Vivek and bowled him.Abhay came in and took a single of next ball 5th ball was a no ball faced by Mukund. then next ball Mangesh bowled Mukund.(Looks like i have jinxed Mukund that it is impossible to bowl him)
One ball left and Naveed came in. He again bowled a no ball that was hit for a four and he had to bowl the last ball again. And he got Naveed out Caught and bowled on that. So pretty much a wicket after every no ball. The end result was a 8 ball over that cost 10 runs but cleaned up the whole team and 3 wickets came in that
Abhay who was watching all this from the other end was left to take his team to a fighting total with Aakash and Anirudh. Abhay played very well and Anirudh and Aakash were excellent also and they took the score to 25 after 5+1 overs
Team A decided to use the Juniors over first and Mehul gave them an excellent start making 4 runs but Anirudh and Aakash did get him out on the last ball which would be a key
Sachin Tendulkur and Ranjan then took over and Naveed bowled the first over . It was the old no ball Naveed and the over was a 10 ball over with 5 runs and two wickets. Both openers were dismissed but score was already nine with four more overs to go, 17 more were needed.
Viral and Mangesh joined but Vivek bowled Viral in the next over but they did manage to take 6 runs from the over.
Now 11 more were needed of three overs and three wickets in hand. Things looked good for Team A with Mangesh the finisher at crease with in form Siva and Marut who batted well all day today. But Kalpesh who bowled great all day on a day dominated by Batsman bowled the over of the day. He got Mangesh and Siva and gave away no runs. A double wicket Maiden.
It was left to Marut and he took 7 runs of the next over bowled by Mukund including a four. but on the last ball Mukund hit bowled him by hitting his leg stump bowling round the wicket. One over was still left but no more wickets. How crucial was Mehul's wicket in the very first over otherwise he could still have batted and Team A still would have a chance So Finally bowlers have some say and Team B ties the series.
I thought to keep this week report short but so much happened today here and there that it was hard. It was a strange sort of day with all happening but games as usual were very close.
Special Performance of the Day: Has to be Sachin. Was always in the spotlight today and he set the tone of the day for all batsman with his free flowing and hard hitting in first game . I did not like it so much at that time when he was all over our bowlers but gotta love his free style of batting. Sachin i know you dont live very close but please try to come regularly
. Kalpesh bowling very well all day
. Marut's Catch of Siva on leg side boundary
. Vivek's 6 of Siva's last ball in the 10th over of first game
. Ranjan and Mangesh keep going strong
. Mehul, Anirduh and Aakash , like i said before Future looks good for BJCC
And Kanan where are you buddy? Bala? Naveen?
Shail two weeks now gone missing. Where are you?
and of Course Parijat is still in India and has not returned from his trip.
Thanks
Naveed
