Inter-school cricket has been lacklustre in Goa but there is hope of a new era taking shape as Sanath Nevagi and Devan Chittam of Bhatikar Model English HS, Margao, set a record in U-14 inter-school cricket.
Showing appetite for big runs during the match between Bhatikar Model English HS and Posh HS at the U-14 Inter-school Tournament at MCC-Margao, Sanath Nevagi (169) and Devan Chittam (134) put on a record 347-run partnership for the first wicket, creating history in the unheralded school cricket circuit
in Goa.
Winning the toss and batting first, Bhatikar posted a mammoth total of 405/4 in 40 overs. In reply, Posh were all out for 42 runs in 17.2 overs. Sanath Nevagi (3-2) with support of Shrey (2-12) and Rohan (1-8) bowled superbly for Bhatikar.
