Set to score 162 for a win, Dastur reached the target in 28 overs.

A fine bowling spell by Dastur School's Niranjan Bhatt, who took five wickets in 4.4 overs at the cost of only 24 runs, curtailed the Choksey batsmen to 161 in 34.4 overs. Niranjan's spell also included a hat-trick.

Only five batsmen managed to reach double figures. While opener Pratik Patel stood firm at one end with a brilliant 48, the only other batsmen to make a respectable score were Aatish Zulup (21) and Nilesh Shah (20). Nilesh Solanki was the other successful bowler for Dastur, scalping three wickets. The target seemed to be too easy for the Dastur lads as they rattled up the required runs in just 27.1 overs. A steady start by openers Zoheb Farooqui (22) and Akshay Chavan (23) paved the way for the later batsmen to play a confident game.

Shreyas Hegde, Dastur's key player in other events as well, displayed excellent batting skills as he scored at a rapid pace, making 44 runs in just 30 balls.
