Veda - Latest News Update, Information, Photos & Videos on Veda at Lokmat Times

Up against Bengaluru Blasters, Manish Pandey and Co put up a comprehensive display to pull off an eight-wicket win in pursuit their 110 for 8 in 20 overs.Pandey's fiery 58 not out and his 76-run third-wicket alliance with Abhinav Manohar (22 not out) guided the Panthers to 115 for 2 in 11.5 overs after they elected to bowl first.While Pandey and Manohar were the ones who came up with the brutal finishing touch, it was Panthers' bowlers who set the game up in their favour.Having failed to defend 180 against the Hubli Tigers on Wednesday, the bowling unit was under pressure to deliver, but the Blasters made their life easier by throwing their wickets away at the most inopportune moments.Blasters crawled their way to a meagre 30 for 1 in the first five overs, and they lost the effervescent Rohan Kadam (1) in the process.Sharath BR (32), the other opener, looked the best off the lot and even he was struggling to put the Panthers away. MB Darshan, the paceman, was the pick of the bowlers, finishing with three wickets.Zahoor Farooqui and Ritesh Bhatkal bagged two wickets apiece. Wickets in regular intervals and a stringent set of overs meant the Blasters could only reach 49 runs in 10 overs.To Blasters' dismay, the next ten over only yielded 61 runs. The 50-run alliance between Jonathan Rongsen (28) and Nikin Jose (21) was the sole bright spot in an otherwise poor batting show.As expected rain was a feature in the game, arriving at 4:04 pm, but it was a brief spell and no overs were lost, meaning the Panthers had plenty of time to chase down the small total.Panthers lost their openers inside the sixth over, but Pandey, who scored an unbeaten century in the previous game, wasn't about to let that minor detail change the course of the game. Pandey, who will not be available for the Panthers after this game owing to his India A commitments, took the Blasters to the cleaners. Manohar was no less attacking as the duo chased it down in an innings which lasted a mere 71 balls.In the women's matches, Karuna Jain and Veda Krishnamurthy used their experience to quell Ballari Tuskers' fight as Belagavi Panthers posted a five-wicket win in the second game of the women's KPL at the IAF grounds.The Rail Wheel Factory ground was supposed to host the game but poor underfoot conditions forced a change in venue. The Tuskers put up a solid 108 for 7 in 20 overs on the back of VR Vanitha's 45-ball 55.Karuna and Veda didn't hit it at Vanitha's strike rate, but they combined well enough to take the Panthers to 110 for 5 in 19.3 overs.( With inputs from IANS )
