Heartland Cricket League NEBRASKA CRICKET CLUB v Iowa Hawkeyes on Sat 24 Sep 2011 at 9:00 AM
Heartland Cricket League Won by 100 runs

Match report An under-manned Iowa Hawkeyes team traveled to Omaha to play in the semi-final of the HCL Division I championships against NCC. HWK won the toss and elected to bowl first.


Urvil Patel bowled an unbroken 6 over spell in which he snared the two openers, followed by another quick wicket (the first of 3 on the day) for Dhaval Patel. With the inning hanging in the balance, Janmejay JJ Tanwar settled down and with Shardul Sohani and then Anish Patel for company drove the NCC score to a formidable 193 for 8 in 30 overs. JJ scored 87 in 70 balls with 6 fours and a six. Urvil and Anup Gandhi took two wickets each to support Dhaval's bag of 3.


The HWK inning got off to the worst possible start when Urvil Patel played all over an inswinging yorker and was out first ball. Three balls later, Sushrut Kamerkar breached Nikhil Sikka's defences and uprooted the leg-stump. 0 for 2 in 4 balls, and in spite of some stiff resistance by Suman Ghorai and Dhaval Patel, who farmed the strike and ensured the HWK inning was extended a fair bit, the HWK inning ended at 93, giving NCC the victory and a berth in the final (against CRK).


In the absence of neutral umpires, both teams umpired during their batting inning and there were no complaints from either side. The game was played in a cordial manner and the HWK team should be commended for coming all the way to Omaha in spite of being short-handed. JJ Tanwar was selected as the Man of the Match.
