Thames International College secured semi-finals

                   Thames International College secured their semi-finals berth when Sagar Malla and Bibhav raj Joshi shared a 49-run partnership for the first wicket, building a solid foundation in registering a six wicket victory over Kathmandu Model College in the Thames Inter College T20 Cricket Tournament at Army School Ground, Bhaktapur on Thursday. Chasing a modest total of 84 runs, Thames attained the target in the 15.1 overs with the loss of four wickets. Earlier, after being sent to bat first, Model also had made an impressive start with Saurav Nepal and Kshitiz Puri sharing a 31 runs partnership for the first wicket. But Model stumbled as their middle orders fell cheaply in regular interval. Man of the match, Eraj Shrestha claimed four wickets for Thames to be a fearful bowler for Model. Likewise, Universal College also made it to the semi-finals after defeating KCMIT by six wickets. Chasing the competitive total of 111 runs, Universal gained their target with the loss of four wickets in the 19.2 overs. Nabin Shrestha (26x36x2), Kiran Nepal (23x26x3) and Prajit Karmacharya (20x19x2) made worthy contributions, while man of the match Kiran Nepal also made a defining contribution with the ball when he chipped two wickets for Universal College.
