Sulochanadevi Singhania bowler Vishakha Chede at Shivaji Park
Vishakha Chede came up with an inspired bowling performance to guide Sulochanadevi Singhania School (Thane) to an easy 49-run win over Thakur Vidyamandir (Kandivli) at Shivaji Park Gymkhana on Friday.
The Thane girl sizzled under pressure by taking five wickets in the under-16 girls match of the Mumbai Indians Junior cricket tournament.
Her player-of-the-match performance ensured that Thakur Vidyamandir were bowled out for just 70 runs in 17.5 overs while chasing a low score of 119.
Earlier, Sulochanadevi Singhania's batting line-up struggled to get going, but fighting knocks from Swarali Bhuyar (33) and Prajane Vishe (19) ensured they crossed the three-figure mark to give their bowlers something to put pressure on the opponents.
