My Match Report – 29.06.2014

Welcome to My Match Report – 29.06.2014 Friends

We are going to witness the last match in the Salem Tour. I had umpired in Periyar University ‘A’ ground for the TNCA Inter Districts Under 25 match between Salem DCA and Namakkal DCA.

 

Salem DCA won the toss and elected to bat first. Salem and Namakkal DCA won their both the matches and this match would be the decider for Spot 1 and 2

Namakkal DCA displayed a decent bowling and fielding effort in their previous matches got improved much more than that for this match. Salem DCA was not able to score freely.

 

The credits are to their opening bowlers Karthick, Parthiban and Vinoth Kumar who maintained a tough line to score.
