In a contest filled with explosive hitting and a bowling masterclass, Youngster Aster outplayed TNM Cricket Academy to register a comprehensive 44-run win.

Youngster Aster’s Innings
Winning the toss and opting to bat, Youngster Aster got off to a flying start thanks to a jaw-dropping innings from Divyansh Joshi. The opener unleashed carnage from the first over, smashing a breathtaking 68 off just 24 balls, laced with 9 fours and 5 sixes — a strike rate of 283.3 that left the TNM bowlers rattled.
While wickets fell at intervals, Bhavya Goel anchored the innings with a classy 55 off 36 balls*, guiding the innings towards a strong finish. The late-order chipped in just enough, and with Joshi’s early fireworks, Youngster Aster ended at a commanding 186/10 in 20 overs.

TNM Cricket Academy’s Innings
Chasing 187 was always going to be tough, but TNM showed promise early on. Inzimam (42 off 31) and Surya (40 off 27) stitched a solid middle-order stand, trying to mount a comeback after early wickets. Shlok Sharma (15 off 9) gave a brisk start, and for a moment, it looked like TNM might pull off a miracle.
But then came Sparsh.
The leg-spinner tore through the TNM batting lineup like a hot knife through butter. He picked up a sensational 6 wickets for just 20 runs in 4 overs, including key scalps of Sandeep Tomar, Aashu, Tusya, and the well-set Surya.
From 85/3, TNM collapsed to 142 all out in 19 overs, losing 7 wickets for just 57 runs, unable to counter Sparsh’s turn, flight, and guile.
Youngster Aster played the perfect game: big runs upfront, tight bowling, and one match-winning spell from a rising spin star. For TNM Cricket Academy, the defeat is a reminder to tighten both their bowling in the powerplay and their approach to spin.
This clash had fireworks, drama, and one of the finest spells of spin seen in recent games. Watch out for Sparsh — he’s not just a name anymore, he’s a threat.
