Bobby went in and provided some stability.
Raj in the other end was looking good and hitting 4s and 6s at will.
But he also perished soon trying to hit an aggressive shot missing the line completely.
Next man Santosh was run out as soon as he went in, in a similar fashion as in his last match at YCAC, responding to Bobby's call for which he took off like a bullet, not watching the ball properly as the ball went to square leg.

Bobby was next to go , trying to negotiate the final deliveries before drinks break.
Last ball of the last over before drinks, he stepped out of his crease to defend one from the on-loan Nitin.
The ball spun and the keeper did a neat job behind the stumps.
Nitin bowled a decent line and length throughout his spell and was rewarded with three wickets, not to speak of the run-outs he effected.

The majority of the runs came by way of extras though.

Captain Bobby won the toss and elected to bat which turned out to be a good decision considering the below points, Al- karam was short of players with just 8 fielders on the field and if the match had washed out , it would have provided the much needed batting practice to out of form Engineers.
