MATCH REPORT: GENERATED BY CRIC TALENTS
Kolkata's local cricket circuit witnessed a performance of legendary proportions as Newtown Knights absolutely decimated Alpha Eleven, securing a convincing 45-run victory on the back of a monumental century from their star batter, Moly.
First Innings: The "Moly" Masterclass
Batting first, the Newtown Knights posted a colossal total of 200/6 in 14.0 overs. The highlight of the match—and perhaps the entire season—was an extraordinary knock from Moly. Displaying impeccable timing and sheer power, Moly bludgeoned a breathtaking, unbeaten **103 runs from just 41 balls**. His innings was punctuated by a staggering 13 massive sixes and 3 fours, leaving the opposition bowling at an astonishing strike rate of 251.22.
He was brilliantly complemented by ROHIT SINGH, whose rapid-fire **38 runs off 12 deliveries** (5 sixes) provided the necessary fireworks in the middle overs. Shankar Newtown added a late flourish with an unbeaten 19 off 7 balls, ensuring the target was well beyond reach.
Second Innings: Knights’ Bowling Unit Stays Clinical
Defending 200, the Newtown Knights’ bowling unit remained disciplined throughout. Despite a spirited counter-attack from Alpha Eleven’s Debabrata Sarkar (47 off 13 balls, 6 sixes), the Knights consistently found breakthroughs.
The star with the ball was Om, who delivered a sensational spell of 3 for 25 in his 2 overs, effectively stalling the chase. He was well-supported by Chiranjit H (2/8) and ROHIT SINGH (2/15), who ensured the required rate climbed out of reach. Alpha Eleven were eventually restricted to 155/8 in their 14 overs.
We congratulate the Newtown Knights on such a dominant and entertaining performance!
