Match report Game 6 v Sheen Park Cricket Club!

Phoenix triumphed over Sheen Park in a thrilling encounter that went down to the wire. Winning the toss, Phoenix elected to bat first and posted a competitive total of 216 off their allotted 35 overs, thanks to solid contributions from the entire batting lineup.

Rajkaran anchored the innings with a stellar knock of 75 off 54 balls, punctuated with 9 fours and 3 sixes. His explosive start laid the perfect foundation for Phoenix. Khizar and Shantanu, who had struggled for form this season, found their rhythm and built on Rajkaran’s platform, ensuring Phoenix set a challenging target for Sheen Park.

At tea, Phoenix knew they had to bowl well to defend their total. Mitul and Sukh provided an ideal start with disciplined bowling figures of 14-2-51-0 combined, though they couldn’t make early inroads. The Sheen Park openers capitalized on this, forging a commanding hundred-run partnership.

Opi’s introduction into the attack broke the deadlock with a beauty of a delivery, sparking hope for Phoenix. Rajkaran then joined the bowling attack, tightening the screws on Sheen Park with economical bowling and crucial wickets.

Sheen Park’s opener, North, looked set to steer his team to victory with a superb century. With 45 runs needed, North’s dismissal by Opi proved to be the turning point, swinging the momentum back in Phoenix’s favour.

Needing 23 runs in the final over, Sheen Park faced immense scoreboard pressure. Sagar, despite the nerves, bowled brilliantly under pressure, sealing an 11-run victory for Phoenix.

Rajkaran was deservedly named Player of the Match for his all-around performance, contributing significantly with both bat and ball.

Phoenix’s win, marked by collective team effort and strategic bowling, showcased their resilience and determination, setting the tone for the rest of the season.
