Put in to bat, Parsee Gym posted a mammoth 204-6 in their allotted 20 overs thanks mainly to Sachin Yadav’s 55 off 32 balls (8x4, 2x6), all-rounder Parag Khanapurkar (18-ball 39 not out, 1x4, 4x6) and wicketkeeper-batsman Aditya Tare (15-ball 33, 4x4, 2x6). Pacer Badre Alam claimed two wickets for Payyade SC.
In reply, Payyade were bundled out for a meagre 117 in 16.2 overs. Opener Yashasvi Jaiswal (12-ball 9) and one-drop Sarfaraz Khan (5-ball 5), who represented Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings respectively in the recent Indian Premier League, were dismissed early by pacer Manish Rao (3-14).
Payyade skipper Siddhesh Lad (55 off 37 balls, 5x4, 3x6) fought hard, but the 205-run target was too tall to achieve.
