Cricketers Day Out



Hello people,

How's everyone doing? So, today the post will be about, yeah, guessed that right, the cricket match between ODOP - LC vs KKPR.

This Sunday, that is - 7th April, at Maidan, the most awaited match between ODOP - LC vs. KKPR - Friendly Match 2013 took place.

The two teams with 11 members in tow came walking hand in hand braving the heat which slowly got tamed - it seemed that the Sun too was one of the interested spectators. Even though the temperature was a little high, the weather was good, a cool wind started to blow and the humidity was also low compared to other days, so all in all, it was a perfect day for us.

Our cricketers Arin Paul (C), Rimita Sen (VC), Sayan Mitra, Vishal Roy, Sanjay Saha, Anish Ghosh, Priya Dey, Brojonath Banerjee (WK), Subhakar Rudra, Ayan Pathak and Tathagata Das with only one mission - WIN !

The captain for the KKPR team was Buddha Das.  Umpires were Arup Chowdhury and Sarasij Dasgupta.

We won the toss and elected to bat first.

After a few overs and outs, we made 150 runs out of 10 overs.

Once KKPR's time for batting came, they showed pretty good determination in winning the game, but as the time passed by, our hard work did pay off and we came out winning at the end. Whereas we made 150 runs in 10 Overs, they made 43 runs in 9.2 Overs (all out).  All the players gave their best shots and every moment was challenging for both the teams, but all's well that ends well. So, here we are, after winning the match, waiting eagerly for another one that is going to be held on 27th of this month at Rifle club near Bansdroni, be there without fail, timing to be confirmed!
