CHAK DIYA CABS team!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Oops!..sorry....couldn't take the finger off the key in time...that is the amount of excitement....This day goes into the history of CABS cricket as one of the most remarkable days....
CABS cricket truly had a promotion today....Wat else do u want?We beat one of the formidable teams today..and that too in a bowling match!!!
Talents came pouring in..it was in the HCG and i don suppose that we have ever started playin so early...the weather was great and the conducive for a great day of cricket and the air was filled with enthu...we faced a manifold team...it had people from a variety of category...3rd year...4th year....ECE dept,Biomed,hostelite,dayscholar and what not...But the oppsition was dauntless. There was no separation today as CABS and WTF. It was CABS vs the opposition and the spirit was simply immeasurable.....
Jus as we expected we won the toss and no doubt we decided to bat...ADMIN and ul-haq opened the innings...and ADMIN got the team onto a flier...but unfortunately ul-haq ran out of his crease....but then came the highlight of the day...the best partnership till now...DRAVID joined ADMIN at the crease...and both were classy,with free flowing bat and there was no hurdle for the flow of runs..even the fastest bowler in the opponent team could not get the better of them. No stopping them!! ADMIN made some blistering shorts..though every one of them were on the leg-side,his strong area...DRAVID played some glorious shorts all through the ground..though his shorts through the square need special mention..the partnership heaped up runs, going steadily at 7.00 runs per over...jus when we foresaw a great total on the board, ADMIN misqued a delivery and threw away his wicket..he returned back to resting place for a standing ovation..DRAVID followed soon...receiving no less appreciation from the team mates...great partnership guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then the batting order started to wobble a little...REP failed today and surprising ly even VIRU could not thrive....WATSON and PATTU scored few,crucial runs...but the runs did not come as easily as before...but somehow because of the commitment of the people..we reached 86 runs in the stipulated 14 overs at a healthy run rate of 6.14....
Then the CABS team went on to field..full of confidence because of the score we had etched...Though the opposition had a strong batting line up, they were actually low in confidence seeing the spirit that we showed in the field...VARUN SINGH's bowling needs special appreciation....he bowled the first over of the innings with real good consistency throughout...the bowling was great..with VARUN SINGH and DRAVID(sounds strange isn't..dravid opening the BOWLING!!!, it happens only here) opening the bowling..both of them bowled at good length...and restricted the flow of runs for the other team...DRAVID removed the supposedly dangerous player of the opponents with help from VIRU who took a blinder in the deep...The bowlers did a great job and they were well supported by the fielders....the pick of the bowlers include WATSON who claimed 3 important wickets....therefore compensated for his batting....PATTU was great in whatever he did...he did some intelligent work behind the stumps to dismiss another important wicket of the opponents...though they had great players except one the others kept walking back...thanks to some great bowling from us...SLOPPER too had a good time with the ball ..Good work SLOPPER and though he did not miss out in the fielding we have decided not to take any further steps in rechristening him.....i don hav to speak about the fielding...it was the fielding that took us home today...be it REP or IRFAN or JONTY or WATSON or DRAVID..everyone was simply scintilating....something tells me that i have missed out someone..sorry if i hav missed someone...
Owing to the tight bowling and fielding the opponents needed an almost impossible 22 off 12 balls...and thanks DRAVID who made life much more tougher for them..guess what???a maiden in the penultimate over...needing 22 off 6 balls the opponents were under tremendous pressure...PATTU bowled the last over and the opponents were staggering literally...even the batsman who had proved to be a nightmare for the CABS team in the previous occasions was helpless....DRAVID dropped a sitter.. Though the batsman was run out...the opponents fell short by a mile...CABS TEAM grabs a remarkable victory!!!!!!!!!!
Now for the players of the day.....undoubtedly the batting heroes of the day were ADMIN and NATTU...The bowlers of the day, PATTU, WATSON and VARUN and DRAVID( just for that last but one ,over).. I jus couldn point out one bowler. There cannot be any second opinions about PATTU's keeping...Today, he justified me in naming him MAHENDRA SINGH PATTU in more than one way.....that run out was a great work pattu!!!
The next match had nothin important to say...it was between CABS team and the ECE team. Seeing the performance of the CABS team in the first match the opposition team ran for covers just after starting their bowling. Though here comes the cherry on the cake...HARI WARNE caught a real blinder...that goes down as one of the best catches...great work warnie.......
Altogether, today had everything...additionally we proved that we are capable of winning matches against strong teams and that too in the conventional bowling format....great work CABS team and great commitment members....too great was today's playing...keep up the spirit and lets continue this form and reach the next levels...see you soon in the next edition...till then keep the spirit going and accumulate the energy...so that we can unleash our strengths on the opponents....Asusual, am sorry if i have missed out any noteworhy incidents or important players...And ofcourse,your feedbacks are welcome...see you soon.........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
