19 February 2012, IISc Gymkhana Ground, Bangalore: The fourth match of the IISc Centenary Cricket Cup 2012, played between St. Joseph College and Surana College produced a humdinger that went down to the last over. Ultimately, St. Joseph beat ten-man Surana by four runs.
Abhijit (43) and Kunal (52) starred in St. Joseph's innings. Manjunath (2/21) and Mohit (2/25) picked up two wickets apiece for Surana who did a commendable job on the field to restrict St. Joseph to 160/7 in 25 overs despite being one player short.
Left-handed opener Akarsh (72) kept Surana's chase on track with support from the middle order. But a late collapse compounded with some atrocious running between the wickets from Surana and brilliant fielding from St. Joseph ensured a narrow victory for the latter.
