Golok Bera's Unbeaten Century Headlines Calcutta Challengers' 35-Run Win Over Durgas Dynamites
Man of the Match Golok Bera smashes an unbeaten 100 off 37 balls (six fours, eleven sixes) to power CC to 205/6, with Golam Masud's 21 and Masud Rana's all-round 17 & 2/25 lending support, before Subhojit Chatterjee's fighting 68 and ROHAN's 45 fall short as Durgas Dynamites close on 170/3
Calcutta Challengers beat Durgas Dynamites by 35 runs, posting 205/6 in 13 overs and then restricting Durgas Dynamites to 170/3 off their 13. The total was built entirely around a career-best innings from Golok Bera, who blazed an unbeaten 100 off just 37 balls to earn Man of the Match honours, with Golam Masud (21) and Masud Rana (17 & 2/25) lending support with bat and ball. Durgas Dynamites fought back through Subhojit Chatterjee's attacking 68 and ROHAN's 45, both retiring hurt, but the chase never got close enough.
Golok Bera's Unbeaten Century Powers CC to 205/6
Calcutta Challengers lost Ashutosh Maurya cheaply โ 12 off 6 (1 four, 1 six), caught by Subhojit Chatterjee off Mohabbat inside the first over โ but from there it was almost entirely the Golok Bera show. Coming in at number three, he added 73 with Paul Zomi (17 off 8, 2 sixes) to take CC to 89/2, then 42 more with Golam Masud (21 off 11, 3 sixes) to reach 131/3. Miraj's frantic run-a-ball-plus cameo of 17 off just 4 balls (1 four, 2 sixes, SR 425.00) added another 18 in a blur before he was run out, and Golok kept finding the boundary at the other end throughout.
Golok brought up his century in the final overs, finishing unbeaten on 100 off 37 balls โ six fours and eleven sixes, a strike rate of 270.27 โ as CC powered to 205/6. Masud Rana (17 off 7, 2 sixes) and hamzad (13 off 5, 2 sixes) added late impetus around him before Durgas Dynamites' bowlers, led by Mohabbat's 2/29, managed to apply the brakes in the closing stages.
Six fours, eleven sixes, a strike rate over 270 โ Golok Bera batted through the entire Calcutta Challengers innings and finished it with three figures next to his name.
Subhojit Chatterjee and ROHAN Fight Back, But Fall Short
Chasing 206, Durgas Dynamites lost Md Samad for a duck in the very first over โ caught by substitute fielder Ajay Kumar off Anurag Dwivedi โ but ROHAN and captain Subhojit Chatterjee steadied things with a long stand that carried the innings from 1/1 past the 100-mark. ROHAN struck 45 off 24 (4 fours, 3 sixes) before retiring hurt, while Chatterjee counter-attacked to 68 off just 30 balls (5 fours, 6 sixes, SR 226.67) before he too retired hurt. With both set batters off the field, Masud Rana struck twice in quick succession โ removing Kaif Khan for a duck and then Mohabbat, who had smashed 12 off just 3 balls โ to swing momentum back CC's way. Amjad Ali (11* off 7) and Bishal dhal (19* off 13) saw the innings home to 170/3, but Calcutta Challengers' 205 proved just too many, sealing a comfortable 35-run win.
