Kishore spins it Madras Aryan’s way

Bowling first, Bunts reduced Madras Aryan to 213 for eight in its stipulated overs, thanks to right-arm medium pacer C Sarath Kumar’s (5/62) five-wicket haul. Defending just a little over four runs per over, Madras Aryan bowled Bunts out for 205, with leg-spinner Kishore wreaking havoc with a seven-wicket haul.

In a Fifth Division ‘C’ contest, T Adhavan (110 not out) smashed an unbeaten century to guide Triplicane United Club to a thumping nine-wicket success over Minerva Cricket Club.
