CricInfo Tourney, Sep 2000
India A win CricInfo 2000 Tourney in last ball thriller
A fitting finale today at the Jamia Millia Ground in Delhi
saw India A win the CricInfo 2000 Tourney in a close finish. A match
that went right down to the wire belonged completely to the
batswomen. It's not often that a match is decided on the last possible
ball. The pressure on both sides is immense in such situations and the
team that does not panic usually comes out on top. That team, on the
day, was India A. After winning the toss, the India A skipper Purnima
Rau made a bold decision and decided to chase. Having put India C in
to bat on a wicket that kept pretty low, India A were in a bit of
bother as openers Anju Jain and Amritha Shinde started well. The pair
put on 34 runs before the dangerous looking Anju Jain was
dismissed. Many a murmur went through the pavilion as a key batswoman
had fallen early.
