The Big Cricket League continued to thrill cricket fans as the Southern Spartans showcased their dominance against the Rajasthan Regals in the first game of the day. Winning the toss and electing to field, the Spartans’ bowlers, led by Abhimanyu Mithun, restricted the Regals to a below-par score.
The Regals had a shaky start, losing opener S Srinivas early for a struggling 3 off 8 balls. Sri Lankan legend T Dilshan played a steady hand, scoring 33 off 32 balls, but found little support from the other end. Mehul Patel contributed with a fighting 30 off 25 balls, but the Regals could only muster 138/8 in their 20 overs. Mithun was the star of the show, bowling a disciplined spell to claim 2/17.
Chasing 139, the Spartans got off to a blazing start thanks to wicketkeeper-batter Shrestha, who smashed a scintillating 51 off just 18 balls, laced with boundaries and sixes. South African veteran Herschelle Gibbs added stability with an unbeaten 27, steering the Spartans to victory in the 16th over with 6 wickets in hand. Mithun’s excellent bowling performance earned him the Man of the Match award.
