Corporate Olympiad Cricket

We played the semi finals and the finals of the Corporate Olympiad tennis ball cricket on Sunday. We won the semis comfortably. It was a easy match and the top order completed the match within eight overs. Our team members played very casual in the finals against Precision Info.

Even though it was a back to back match without rest, the fight we gave was not enough. We won Precision Info last year comfortably. But we played a very poor game against them this time. They set a target of 75 runs. We were 19 for six at the end of six overs. We never get back to the game and we lost by 38 runs.


Most of the batsmen got out by facing less than Five balls. For us only the openers are performing. If they fail to perform, we are getting into trouble. This was the worst ever played match by us in the corporate games.

It was a game similar to the one we played in 2008 first league match in V5 corporate cricket, where we were 23 for six at one point. That match was saved by Babu, Lingam and Hudson.
