Thanjavur DCA surprisingly started the chase majestically with Saravana Kumar(45) hitting hard. The first 10 overs were tough for Tirunelveli until Boothalingam scalped a wicket. But the actual disaster was waiting for Thanjavur then.
It came in the name of J. Prakash and Kishore Kumar. Yes J. Prakash scalped 7 wickets for 40 runs. However the thanjavur batsmen showed some resistance in the form of Arunesh(32) and Saran Nirmal Francisraj(31*). Tirunelveli Wicket keeper Kishore involved in 6 dismissals (1 caught behind and 5 Stumpings)
Thanjavur DCA scored 166 in 29.3 overs and Tirunelveli DCA beat Thanjavur DCA by 162 runs and advanced to the next round.
It was happy to see the young kids showed patience, power and style irrespective to their victory or defeat. They showed the good spirit on and off the field.
