    AU Shetty reaped rich harvest with 4 for 12, the best bowling figures in the second edition of the tournament so far in terms of runs conceded. B Akhil was a good foil to him by capturing 2 for 25.

  • A NJSCUA T-20 game played on Sept 26, 2010 will perhaps go into cricket record books due to one of the epic innings ever played in a T20 game, anywhere across the world.

     

    On a gloomy and overcast day, Amir Rafique of Dynamic Cricket Club scored 208 not out in a New Jersey State Cricket Umpires Association (NJSCUA - http://NJSCUA.com) T20 match held at Wilmington, DE against AIM Cricket Club on Sunday, September 26, 2010.

    The opening pair put on super quick fire 100 runs in the first eight overs; however, the next twelve overs saw some unprecedented hitting that would have given Sehwags and Afridis of the Atlantic Region some stiff competition.

     

    200+ plus runs were plundered. The opposition bowlers tried all the tricks up their sleeves but could not stop Amir in clearing the boundaries effortlessly.
