Titans Vs Ambassadors

Chucky - 6.5
Decent in the field, his presence at slip and short mid wicket contributed to the pressure. Batting was solid as ever, 28 not out to carry his bat and see the game through.

Dalip - 8
Took a skier of a catch and made it look easy. Played a gem of an innings, under no pressure, to deflate all hopes of the opposition. Played a good mix of conventional and original strokes to make 53. Should try to carry through, especially when chasing small targets.

Prateek - 6
Keeping was decent, although concentration started to flag later in the innings. Seemed like a fitness issue. Batting was decent. Made 12 not out to keep Chucky company at the end and finished the game off with a four.

Rakesh - 5
Did not get to display his wares, as the batsmen ahead of him chased down an easy target. Fielding was decent. He seems to be becoming a better fielder with each game and the captain can trust him with more responsibility in that area.

Atif - 7
Two wickets in the first over he bowled, including a first ball wicket. He has proven that he is a consistent enough bowler to confound the tailenders. Finished with 3 for 22 off 3 overs. Fielding had nothing much to complain about, but needs to get a little quicker in the field.

Paul - 7
An excellent opening spell, that went unnoticed because of the effort at the other end. 6-0-14-1 are pretty good figures while bowling with field restrictions. Did not relieve the pressure to complement Wazza's spell. Also took the last catch to finish the innings off. Would have had another wicket had Warren not dropped a catch he got to.

Tanmay - 6
Another decent bowling effort, 5-0-21-1. His two-face bowling persona, is commendable for its accuracy and will surely bring him wickets. His fielding also helped keep the pressure on.

Warren - 9.5
Took 5 wickets - all bowled in a devastating opening spell. Left the batsmen wafting at thin air with his pace and swing. Clipped the off-mid bail twice, but the coup-de-grace was the yorker that took the middle stump off and sent it flying 10 yards. The opposition had no coming back form there. Took a good running catch in the outfield. Would have had another wicket had Paul not dropped a catch he got to.

Dave - 5
Did not get to dol much, but his fielding in the covers area kept the batsmen on thier toes and there were very few quick singles taken. Keep up the good work.

Alan - 6.5
A fruitless albiet consistent spell from him. The unlcukiest bowler of the day. went past the outside edge umpteen times and the one he did get was not given by the umpire. Still finished with an economy of 2.6. Better luck next time Al.

Coach - 5
Even though he did not have any major active contributions on the field, but his presence helped a lot. He had a lot of posetive input and advice to offer to the captain and the bowlers. On field, he did stop sverything that came to him, did not get a chacne to bowl or bat and he hopes it stays that way.

Result - Titans CC beat Ambassador CC by 9 wickets
