IISc pip BMSCE, enter final

18th August, IIMB Ground, Bangalore: Playing their second match of the IIMB Invitational Tournament 2012, IISc pipped BMS College of Engineering by 28 runs to reach the final with a clean slate. 

A murderous 28-ball 62 by Kiran and late order charge by Syam (47 off 28 balls) propelled IISc to 180 in 20 overs. Kiran's early onslaught comprised five fours and six sixes. But IISc collapsed from 84/1 to 120/7 before Syam's counter-attack saved the day for IISc.

BMSCE were always behind the required rate in pursuit of the stiff target and never quite managed to give a scare to IISc. Srinath (35) and Pankaj (34) were the top-scorers for BMS.

Brief scores: (20 overs match)
IISc - 180 allout in 20 overs
(Kiran 62, Syam 47, Teja 2/26, Akshay 2/35, Pranav 3/30)
BMSCE - 152/7 in 20 overs
(Varun 4-0-14-2, Debajit 4-1-22-1, Vikram 4-0-44-2)

Result: IISc won by 28 runs
Man of the match: Kiran Gangadharan
