Nikin Jose led the way with a classy knock
Brilliant knocks from Nikin Jose (85* off 56), Amit Verma (41* off 28) and three-wicket-hauls from Vijaykumar Vyashak (3/21 in 4) & M Venkatesh (3/24 in 4) helped Mangalore United (MU) seal an eight-wicket win at the expense of Shivamogga Strikers on Wednesday, August 10.
Mangalore flexed their muscles in this game as they completely outclassed their opponents in all departments of the game to claim a hat-trick of wins in the ongoing Maharaja Trophy T20 KSCA Cricket.
Batting first, the Strikers rode on a 49-ball 64 from opener Rohan Kadam, who stood tall at one end even as M Venkatesh kept dismissing his partners.
He was well supported by Stallin Hoover, who scored a 16-ball 25 with the help of 1 four and two sixes.
But, once HS Sharath dismissed Kadam, M Venkatesh and especially Vyashak, returned to wipe out the lower-order and restrict Shivamogga to 155/8 in 20 overs.
