T20 Mumbai League: All-round Sairaj Powers Eagle Thane Strikers To Second Straight Win
After powering Thane to a formidable total with a brisk unbeaten half-century, Patil returned to make an impact with the ball, picking up two key wickets in a superb all-round display. His efforts proved decisive as the Strikers decimated the Blasters’ batting line-up to seal their second straight victory, building on their opening-day win over Triumph Knights Mumbai North East.
On a wicket which offered even bounce, Sairaj continued his superb form from Wednesday to remain unbeaten on 54 with three boundaries and four hits into the stands studding his 28-ball knock. Asked to bat first, the Strikers posted 205/6 with Varun Lavande (43 off 32) and captain Atharva Ankolekar (33 off 19) also posting useful contributions. Patil and Ankolekar laid the foundation of a big total with a 56-run partnership before the latter fell while attempting to force the pace. Shashikant Kadam then joined Patil and the duo plundered 43 runs between them off just 15 balls to ensure a strong finish for the Thane innings.
