In their last game, the Kaziranga Heroes suffered a tough loss against Dihing Patki Riders by eight wickets. Kaziranga’s batting performance was a letdown as they posted a mere 124 runs.
Despite the low total, Bhargav Lahkar's brilliant spell, conceding just 2.5 runs per over, kept the Riders in check, even if wickets were hard to come by. However, the Patki Riders' batters managed to chase down the target with two overs to spare, securing a convincing victory.
In their recent match, the Subansiri Champs delivered a stellar performance, clinching a convincing four-wicket victory over Manas Tigers. The Champs' bowlers were on fire, limiting the Tigers to a meager 100 runs.
Senglong Rongpi led the attack with three crucial wickets, well-supported by Pushparaj Sharma. Danish Ahmed and Rituraj Biswas claimed two wickets each. The Champs' chase was smooth sailing, with batter Vishal Roy's unbeaten 54-run knock anchoring the victory within 16 overs. It was a well-rounded team effort securing a remarkable win for the Subansiri Champs.
