Sayali Satghare Shines As Mumbai Falcons Clinch Historic First Win In Inaugural T20 Mumbai Women's League
Aakash Tigers Mumbai Western Suburb: India star Sayali Satghare led SOBO Mumbai Falcons from the front with a decisive three-wicket spell as her side began their campaign with a convincing 16-run victory over Thane Sky Risers in the tournament’s opening match of the inaugural T20 Mumbai Women’s League here at the Wankhede Stadium.
Chasing a challenging 174, opener Mansi Patil (46) kept the chase alive for Thane Sky Risers despite losing partners at regular intervals. Mahek Pokar (23 retired hurt) and Saima Thakor (29) made promising starts but failed to build on them as the Falcons attack, marshalled brilliantly by Satghare, kept the pressure firmly on the opposition.
In the closing stages, wicketkeeper Khushi Bhatia produced a spirited 28 off just 16 balls, striking the ball cleanly to keep Thane’s hopes alive. However, her dismissal in the penultimate over all but extinguished the Sky Risers’ chances and tilted the match decisively in the Falcons’ favour.
