Tailenders Vs Nightwatchmen!
The Indoor League is here, and for the first time ever HKUCC have entered two teams into the competition!
We celebrated this with an internal practice game yesterday evening, becoming the first external club to run an indoor game at the new net facilities at Indian Recreation Club!
The Tailenders emerged victorious in the game, but the Nightwatchmen put up stronger numbers in the after-match dinner. Honours even - we look forward to the rematch at the league later this summer!

An overcast day at GDB to end the season, and we won the toss and opted to bowl first. Every bowler used ended up with a wicket, Nitesh taking 3/41 in his 7 overs, Sachin 2/25 in his 7, and Asim taking 4 good catches in the field.
Our chase started poorly with 2 early wickets, but Rishi’s half century (64 off 50 with 6 fours and 2 sixes) and contributions from Ashu (41 off 37) and Pandu (25 off 24) ensured a comfortable chase with plenty of time to spare. A good way to end the season, followed by a celebration dinner at Rajdoots after!
Player of The Match: Rishi

An overcast day at GDB saw us put in one of our best bowling performances of the season – Jaya taking two wickets in the first over and combining with Yaqzaan to reduce IRC to 17/5 in 5.2 overs! IRC rallied well, but Abhishek took 3 wickets in his first over after drinks, and we managed to bowl them out for just 133. A brisk 45-run opening partnership between Ashutosh and Nitesh set us up for a comfortable chase, with no further hiccups.
Just kidding, this is HKUCC after all. IRC’s spinners bowled excellently and we wobbled to 79/5, threatening to throw away yet another winning position. But Ashwin remained composed, and Abhishek scored blistering 41* to get us over the line with plenty of time to spare. Phew. Off to Haqs!
