The Champions Defended their crown

It was Vk Pratishthan and Waklan who defended their championship at the Late Ratanbuva Smruti Chashak 2020 in open and Gramin lot respectively.

Dombivli: 11 days,
100 teams and finally we got the champions at the Late Ratanbuva Smruti Chashak
2020. 47 matches in Gramin, 15 in 40-plus, 24 in open and 11 in Kalyan-Raigad
lot after tremendous 11 days at the Premier Colony Ground Dombivli produced
four winners in each category. Waklan emerged as champions in Gramin lot, VK
Pratishthan in Open lot, Dapoli in Kalyan-Raigad lot and Rishi XI Katai in
40-plus.

It was a close contest in Gramin final when Waklan chased 44
runs in five over in last over. Though Ketan Mhatre was looking dangerous for
Dahisar his wicket in the penultimate over produced some hopes.

Perhaps, it was a premier contest and with some new concepts
in tennis ball cricket tournaments, president of Gramin Tennis Ball Cricket
Association Shree Vinod Patil along with Ananta Patil organized this tournament
above the expectations.  Some new records
were created in broadcast viewership and crowd support throughout the 11 days.
