GSCK vs Minhaj B

A statement 10-wicket demolition. Grorud were untouchable in every phase of this game — with the ball, at the top, and in the field.

A Bowling Masterclass

Grorud won the toss and chose to bowl. From ball one, Minhaj B were made to fight for every run.

The pick of the attack was our captain Rahul Kaladharan, who delivered 4 overs of pure control: 4-0-9-2, economy 2.25. That is elite T20 bowling — full stop.

He wasn’t alone. Rijoy P (2-0-6-1, economy 3.00), Mahaboob Monutty (1-0-7-1) and Mahesh Das (3-0-22-1) all kept the pressure on. Kushank Singh fought hard for his 40 off 46 at the top, but there was no partnership on the sheet that Grorud didn’t break.

Minhaj B were held to 106/8 — a target that never looked defendable against the way we were batting.

Nithin and Jojy Ended It in 5.3 Overs

Sent in to chase 107, Nithin Nandan and Jojy Varghese decided the game was going to end before it even started.

• Jojy Varghese: 31* off 13 (four fours, two sixes, SR 238)
• Nithin Chekkattu Nandan: 45* off 21 (four fours, three sixes, SR 214)

That is an opening stand of 85 in 5.3 overs, both unbeaten. When the D/L call came, Grorud were miles ahead of par. Won by 10 wickets.

A Perfect Team Performance

Every discipline. Every phase. Every player who took the field.

• The captain leading the bowling attack with 2/9.
• The openers finishing it inside six overs.
• The fielders backing up every ball.

This is what a top-of-the-table performance looks like.
