The innings began with a somewhat shaky start, but Priyanshu Pandey and Kritagya K Singh quickly found their rhythm. Pandey, in particular, was in scintillating form, unleashing a series of powerful shots that peppered the boundary ropes. He displayed a wide array of strokes, from lofted drives over long-off to delicate late cuts and powerful pulls.
The middle overs saw a continuation of this aggressive approach, with contributions from Shaurya Singh and Abhay Dwivedi. The bowlers from Gautam Buddh Nagar struggled to contain the flow of runs, as big hits came at regular intervals. Raghav Chopra and Yuvraj Singh Nagar were targeted, with batsmen hitting big shots off their bowling.
The latter part of the innings was dominated by Kuldip Chauhan, who unleashed a brutal assault on the bowling. He smashed sixes with regularity, propelling CA Lucknow to a formidable total. His aggressive batting in the ending overs, including 3 sixes and a four in a single over, pushed the score to an unreachable level.
Despite a few wickets falling at crucial junctures, CA Lucknow's batting depth ensured a steady flow of runs. The team's ability to capitalize on loose deliveries and find the boundary with regularity proved to be the difference-maker.
In the end, CA Lucknow's dominant batting performance set up a challenging target, which Gautam Buddh Nagar ultimately failed to chase. CA Lucknow's bowlers then did their part to secure a comfortable 79-run victory.
Gautam Buddh Nagar's batting innings started poorly, losing early wickets to Sujit Giri's accurate bowling. Divyansh Joshi's aggressive approach provided a brief spark, but his dismissal shifted momentum. Abhay Pratap Singh attempted to anchor the innings but lacked consistent support. Manish Bhati's boundary-filled contribution offered a brief period of scoring, but CA Lucknow's bowlers, particularly Rohit Dwivedi and Kritagya K Singh, maintained pressure, claiming wickets at regular intervals.
The lower order struggled to form partnerships, resulting in a swift collapse. Sarthak Dikshit's late wickets further compounded their woes. Ultimately, Gautam Buddh Nagar's innings was defined by consistent wicket losses and an inability to build substantial partnerships, leading to a below-par total.
