Electing to bat, Rizvi were powered to 291/6 by Shaw's blistering ton in their regulation 45 overs.

The opener smashed 11 fours and a huge siz in his 115, and was well-supported by skipper Arman Jaffer, who led the way with his 63, which included eight boundaries. Danish Mansoori played his part, blasting 35 in just 20 balls with four boundaries and a mighty six. IES Raja Shivaji failed to chase down the huge target after a brilliant opening and were bowled out for just 128. Openers Tanmay Wadkar (41) and skipper Laxman Manjrekar (40) started well, but with their departure went their team's chances, and IES were all out in just 34.2 overs. Sidak Singh was the wrecker-in-chief, clinching five wickets with three maidens to rattle the opposition batting line-up. Shaw picked up two wickets.
