Man of the match:
from Microsoft Doosras | | Other notables | |
• Doosras opened with Arun Jayakeerthy and Kalyan Siruvuri. Both the batsmen played with great temperament and patience while whacking the loose balls that came in the way. | |
• The 1st wicket partnership was of 77 runs of 59 balls which provided a solid foundation on the batting side. | |
• In the 10th over Kalyan was caught on the boundary by Vineet Saini off Nikhil Chury’s bowling. Naveen went 1 down and was determined to play a long innings so instead of his usual firecrackers, he accelerated the run rate by converting 1’s into 2’s and 2’s into 3’s. | |
• Arun meanwhile was tearing into the King County bowlers and it was raining boundaries. After a beautifully constructed 75 Arun was bowled by Javed Mahtab while hitting across and getting an inner edge. | |
• Kameshwar was run out on the very next ball because he suddenly thought he was Usain Bolt and bolted for a non existent single. | |
• Captain and the Vice captain then played some good cricket. They maintained the run rate of above 8/over. | |
• Faizan convinced himself that Ivan was LBW when he tried a switch hit – only problem was it was a free hit | |
• Naveen was caught and bowled by Adnan Sheikh while accelerating the run rate. | |
• When Aniruddha went in for bat, instead of bringing shower of runs on the field, he brought heavy rains. | |
• After umpire called it a “wash out” game both teams went to Shalimar café and did a deep dive into Faizan’s appealJ while devouring delicious poori’s. |

| | Boeing registers an emphatic win against Whatcom | | Saturday, June 20, 2009 | |
Match#
09-40-T-1530PM: Hypersonics won by 68 runs | | Boeing Cricket Field | | Toss won by Hypersonics and elected to bat | | Hypersonics: 150 for 9 in 20 overs | |

Batting highlights:
N/A | |
Bowling highlights:
Nelson Jeyarajah 3/25, Harpreet Bal 2/17 | |
Man of the match:
Ali Akhter from Hypersonics | | Other notables | |
• Boeing Hypersonics won the toss and elected to bat. Ali Akhter and Maitrik Patel gave a brisk start to Hypersonics’ inning. | |
• Boeing was scoring at run-a-ball until their first setback when Maitrik Patel was caught at short midwicket. | |
• A couple of quick wickets followed but Boeing were still sitting pretty at the halfway stage – with 7 wickets in hand, the score read 70 after 10 overs and the dangerous Ali Akhter still at the crease. | |
• Both Ali’s – Akhter and Khan – were in a punishing mood in the middle overs of the inning. With a flurry of fours and sixes hit by both batsmen, Whatcom clearly looked worried. | |
• With overs running out and plenty of wickets in hand, Boeing continued the onslaught until the very last ball. Nelson Jeyarajah smacked a couple of fours to boost the scoring rate. | |
• In the end, Boeing managed a well composed and an extremely competitive score of 150 in the allocated 20 overs. | |
• If the Boeing batsman were in full flow, the bowlers were equal to the task. All four pacers - Sukhwant Sohi, Ali Akhter, Harpreet Bal, and Nelson Jeyarajah – bowled excellent line and length with full pace. | |
• The Whatcom batsmen clearly looked out of sorts and were simply overmatched by the Boeing pacers. The fielders backed up the bowlers with some good catching. | |
• All in all, it was an all-round, clinical performance by Boeing. The Boeing Hypersonics won by 68 runs in the end, but the final score does not do justice to the complete blowout win by Boeing. | |
• There was only one obvious man-of-the-match choice: Ali Akhter. |
