JC Mukherjee T20 Tournament
Pre Quarter Final Round
Final Score:
Kolkata Union Sporting Club – 110/7 (20 overs)
Kalighat Club – 114/5 (19.4 overs)
On a slow and difficult Dumurjola ground wicket where stroke making was never easy, Kolkata Union Sporting Club produced another spirited and fearless display against top flight and fancied opponents Kalighat Club. Winning the toss, Kalighat Club elected to field first and their bowlers exploited the conditions well in the early stages.
Despite the challenging surface, Kolkata Union Sporting Club battled hard with Pabitra Seth top scoring with a determined 23, while Pijush Laha contributed a valuable 22 at the top. Useful late contributions from Rik S Choudhury and Anik Nandi helped the team post 110/7 in 20 overs, a score that still demanded disciplined batting on that surface.
Defending the total, the Kolkata Union Sporting Club bowlers responded magnificently and made Kalighat Club work hard for every single run. Sumit Rajak picked up two crucial wickets, while skipper Vivek Singh and Anik Nandi chipped in with one wicket each. The bowlers maintained tight lines and kept the pressure on throughout as Kalighat Club was reduced to 96/5 before eventually reaching the target in 19.4 overs.
Though our journey in the 2025-2026 cricket season comes to an end, the boys once again showed immense courage, discipline and fighting spirit against one of the strongest sides in Kolkata cricket. The commitment and fearlessness displayed throughout the season make every supporter proud of this legacy club.
