The day witnessed the biggest upset of the tournament. Winner of All India Manish Agnihotri Memorial Cricket Tournament, Air Force failed to rewrite the winning script against the Jhansi Division. Delhi failed in every department of the game.
Luck also deserted the loser when the team lost the toss.

However, Jhansi Division that was unaware about the pitch provided an opportunity to Delhi team by inviting to bat first after winning the toss.

When the day is not for you everything goes wrong. This happened with the Air Force as the team’s batsmen failed to stand against average bowling.

Except Sajid Khan others struggled to score even for ones and twos. Khan scored 53. The team that had been outstanding in the tournament scored just 159 runs. Amit Mehra claimed highest four wickets.

Chasing the target, Sarfaraz through his fabulous 79 runs innings drafted six wickets win for Jhansi Division. For Delhi team, Prashant claimed two wickets.
