IISc beat Basvangudi CA

28 November 2010, IISc Gymkhana Ground, Bangalore: Without the services of several key players, IISc defeated Basvangudi Cricket Academy by three wickets albeit with help from some guest players. 

Lefty opener Nikhil (68) was the only BCA batsman who looked comfortable throughout his stay at the crease. Once Sunil got him out, Lalit (3/48) and Shimjith (3/12) ran through the BCA batting line up setting the home team an easy target of 204 in 50 overs.

In reply, IISc were reduced to 44/4 at one stage before sanity prevailed with a stabilizing partnership between Shimjith (25) and Lakshadeep (45). The job was completed by Vasanth (41*) and Manjunath (22*) with plenty of balls to spare.

After the euphoria of making it to the super league stage of the KSCA Metro Shield 2010,  team IISc has been kept waiting for the super-league fixtures.
