One of the craziest and most enjoyable tournament of my college life :-
Post Tournament Treat by Mavericks Cricket Team at Food Court - VIT Vellore
Invictus 30-40 cricket is something that we can't see anywhere, playing with 6 players (6 overs) and we registered 2 teams. We waited and waited all day to start our first match and we played at 5:30 pm and won the first game.
Runs flowing all parts on the ground and we are a good side in both batting, bowling, and fielding. To win this type of matches we need to enjoy the game more and at the same time thinking the process should be quick. Scoring runs in short distance may sound a lot easier but when we actually play, it was not that easy. I had the privilege to guide the team as captain- team players include- Mashoodh, Karthik, Vadivel, Sudhan, Ram Prasanth and Myself Sam.
Karthik and Mashoodh gave us the best possible start in every match we played. It was a typical Mashoodh's favorite play all around in the tournament. More than 30 teams played and I remember a couple of matches - the important ones actually. First one was with a team from Bangalore and they have scored about 70+ runs in 6 overs. we had a good start but kept losing a couple of wickets, we required around 40 + runs in 3 overs and I played a captain's innings to lead the team to victory. (Though it is not a formal type of cricket, still it is one of the satisfying matches for me in college personally). This win leads the way to reach semi finals. And we played against B.COM students of VIT and we won the match to reach the finals.
The last but not the least, who would have thought that our 2 teams. i.e MAVERICKS 1 and MAVERICKS 2 could reach finals. But Yes, we did it in most enjoyable and fun filled play. Finals against my friends ( another set of players in the different team) was an enjoyable match. Toss won by myself and put my friends to bat first, 30+ runs scored by them probably one the lowest score in the tournament. ( But I have to remind the readers, this team had scored the highest runs in the a single match 125+ in 6 overs). Final was again our day, winning and losing doesn't matter big because, whoever wins we all going to celebrate with a treat. We won the game and clinched the inaugural INVICTUS cricket title.
