Abhijit ensures his presence felt by EPL members

It was a purrr-fect weekend weather for cricket and guess what? Abhijit, former EPL member, a dashing sportsman was in town. The game started little late, mainly due to 'unplanned-greet-Abhijit' sessions as and when people were joining the game.



Teams:
Abhi's (Bowled-n-handsome): Abhijit, Adi, Umakant, Keshav, Shubhojit, Jagraj, Sanjay
Saki's (The drunkards): Saket, Mukesh, Puneet, Ajit, Ishan, NLN, Manish

We played 3 matches on Saturday:

1st Match:
Abhijit's team was asked to chase a moderate total of 44 runs in 8 Overs. Mukesh, Ishan and Ajit from the opponents bowled tight overs to restrict Abhi's well below the target.

2nd Match:
Abhi's took it defeat in the first match quite seriously and after winning the toss decided to bat first. There were some good batting display by their team and they set a target of 49 for Saki's.
Saki's 'over-rated-over-paid' batsman displayed a dismal batting performance and they could manage only 38 runs before getting all out despite a good start by Manish.

3rd Match:
If someone is going to remember this match it will be for dashing batting of Sanjay and Ishan (and for poor bowling from Saket and Ajit - sorry folks i had to mention it ;)
Batting first and riding on Sajay's historic-super-natural batting performance, Abhi's made a handsome 71 in allotted 8 overs. Saki's needed a glimpse of Sanjay's image on any of their players...and whola!! Ishan hit 5 sixes to compensat the damage done by Sanjay. But at the end it was Abhi's who had the last laugh.

Saki's claimed that they wanted to gift Abhijit a feel of winning the series, so they lost intentionally. There were some rumours that main cause of Saki's defeat was 'no bowling by Mukesh' ;)
