Anurag claims six as NCA win title

In the final, played over two days, NCA batted first and piled up 298/8 in their allotted 60 overs on Tuesday. Aditya Ahuja struck a fine 110 off 141 balls, while Aryan Munde (58) and Vedant Dighade (57) chipped in with half-centuries.

Openers Digvijay Tiwari (42) and Pratham Chawla (49) added 81 runs for the first wicket to give Ruby Colts a head-start in the chase, but their middle-order could not sustain the momentum. Anurag, who struck at regular intervals to fashion his team’s victory, was declared the ‘Player of the Match’.
