Saturday was sunny and it looked as if we really have summar back in Erlangen. EPL members geared up and had nice time playing from 9:30 am till 1 pm.
Result Summary:
* Infy - 2, Siemy- 1 (No points for guessing Total 3 matches)
* Key Performers of the day: Sanjay, madhu, Vibhash, Grusher, Pranav, Vikram, Rajendra (very nice keeping)
Match # 1:
Siemy won the toss and elected to bat first. They made a modest total of 65 in 12 overs. Madhu contributed significantly. While chasing 66 in 12 overs, Infy made a great start, thanks to explosive battings by Vikram and Amit. After 3 overs Infy seem to be finishing the game well within 10 overs. It was then Siemy showed brilliant bowling performances by Sanjay, Vibhash, Madhu and Ishan. Superb bowling and fielding changed the way match was going and Siemy cruised to victory in the last over by claiming all the wickets of Infy.
Match # 2:
Winner to bat and Siemy took a slow, rather very slow start. Grusher was on fire and bowled superbly to claim 4 (or more) wickets giving only 6-7 runs. Pranav accompanied him in the bowling department (खरबूजे को देखकर खरबूजा रंग बदलता है !). Siemy made a modest 46 which never was defendable seeing the condition of the pitch :).
The target was easily achieved by Infy (with some exhibition of classical cricket and bookish-shots).
Match # 3:
Some people left from as it was already 12pm. We played a game of 8 overs a side with the remaining players. Siemy bowled badly and conceded too many runs. Infy gave the target of 66 in 8 overs. The batting from Siemy was not up to the mark and they lost in the last over (by some 25 odd runs). I would like to mention the synergy and accuracy shown by Rajendra as keeper.
