Kishore fuels South's innings win

At the IAF grounds, South, replying to President’s XI’s first innings total of 239, declared their innings at a commanding 401 for eight in 104 overs, after resuming at their overnight score of 232 for four.

The President’s XI lads after a dissapointing performance in the first innings, fared worse in the second crumbling to paltry 80 runs and handing their opponents the win on a platter.

South dominated the proceedings once again with the likes of Aparjith and Shreyas Gopal going on a run spree. Aparjith (174 n.o.) went on to add another 65 runs to his overnight tally of 109 while team-mate Shreyas (100) made merry, stacking up another 63 runs to his bedtime score of 37.

With a 162-run lead, South made a sporting declaration. However, President’s XI were not up to the task, Kishore, who picked three for 52 in the first innings, once again proved to be their nemisis claiming 8/15.
