Services 473 and 99 v Goa 381 - Match drawn
On Tuesday, the match between http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Goa-c786 and Services also ended in a draw at District Institute of Education and Training Ground, Porvorim.
After watching Services dominate their opponents while batting first they were a bit disappointing in the field, where they let Goa clobber 381 runs in reply to their first innings score of 473.
On ending the third day of play by posting 312 runs for five, they had no intentions of letting their opposition gain any momentum today as they resumed their first innings.
However, Tuesday brought bad luck with it, as Goa lost http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ravikant-Shukla-c84215 on the fourth delivery of the day without adding a run to his overnight score of 78.
This was a shocker for Goa, nonetheless, Asnodkar was joined by skipper SB Jakati, and the two batsmen, led their side towards 321 before the captain was clean-bowled by Nazar after scoring only a run.
It was then time for SS Bandekar to join the show, and he piled only nine runs before losing his wicket to Nazar, leaving his side sitting on 338.
This was a bitter day for Goa, as they were bowled out for 381 with Asnodkar hammering a knock of 83 runs.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Yashpal-Singh-c98226, was impressive for Services with his four-wicket haul; however, his bowling onslaught was not effective enough to rattle the opposition before the final day.
Beginning their second innings, Services were given an early shock when they lost their first wicket with only four runs on the board.
Skipper S Chatarjee and AH Gupta then forged a potent partnership by taking the score to 43 before Services suffered the loss of their second wicket when Chatarjee, was caught by SA Asnodkar, off Pinto after smashing 13 runs.
AH Gupta (62) and SR Swain (18) then prevented the bowling side from taking anymore wickets as they ended the day by posting 99 runs on the board.
Services’ Yashpal Singh was the most impressive batsman in the match as he smashed 166 runs in the first innings.
