🏆 FINAL DAY MATCH SUMMARIES
USA Masters East Central Zone — Over 50 Regionals, Atlanta

🏆 CHAMPIONSHIP FINAL | Midwest Thunderbirds vs A-Boys - Midwest Thunderbirds won by 49 runs
The Midwest Thunderbirds were crowned champions of the inaugural MCUSA East Central Zone Over 50 Regionals in a fitting finale! Batting first, they posted a solid 172 all out in 42.1 overs. Mehul Shani was the cornerstone of the innings with a composed 45 off 82, stitching together the total with Priyank P (28 off 47) and Anshul B (22 off 42) providing solid support. A-Boys needed a big chase but were restricted to 123 all out in 30.4 overs. Adam Sanford once again led from the front with a gutsy 56 off 56 — almost single-handedly keeping A-Boys in the hunt — but found little support as Mehul S (3-15), Hemen P (2-12), and Vijayant W (2-30) dismantled the A Boys batting lineup. In the end, the Thunderbirds’ all-round strength proved too much, winning by 49 runs to claim the title along with the coveted Nationals spot.
🏅 Joint Man of the Match: Mehul Shani (45) & Adam Sanford (56) | 🤝 Spirit of the Game: Anshul Bamrolia (22)

🥉 3RD PLACE | Alphas Kings XI vs Central East Stars - Alphas Kings XI won by 80 runs
Alphas Kings XI signed off the tournament in emphatic fashion to claim third place. They posted a commanding 234 all out in 44.5 overs, with Jigarkumar S (41 off 35) providing an explosive start and Srikanth R (40 off 70) and Sanjeev S (38 off 36) building impressively through the innings. Central East Stars put up a fight in reply — Nasir (Charlie) J batted with great heart for 30 off 83, and Mahesh S chipped in with 29 — but they could only manage 154 all out in 40.2 overs. Jignesh P (2-10), Sanjeev S (2-19), and Ajay Kumar P (2-26) shared the bowling honours as AKX closed out a strong tournament.
🏅 Man of the Match: Sanjeev Saini (38 & 2-19) | 🤝 Spirit of the Game: Nasir Javed (30 off 83)

🤝 FRIENDLY | EC3 Masters vs Atlanta Paramveers
EC3 Masters won by 85 runs
A wonderful gesture to close out the week — EC3 Masters and Atlanta Paramveers, both having endured a tough tournament, came together for a friendly that gave players well-deserved game time. Syed A was the standout, top-scoring with a fluent 66 off 83 to anchor EC3 to 215/7, with Ravi M (39) and Dilip M (25) in fine support. Atlanta Paramveers showed much improved fight, with Anil Kumar K top-scoring with 41, but were bowled out for 130. Lakshmipathy S was the pick of the EC3 bowlers with 4-38. Both sides will leave Atlanta with heads held high and memories to cherish.

What a historic week of masters cricket in Atlanta. Congratulations to all six teams for being part of this landmark first edition.

MATCH 1 | EC3 Masters vs Atlanta Paramveers
Forfeited — Winner: EC3 Masters
Atlanta Paramveers were unable to field a side for the second consecutive day, handing EC3 Masters a much-needed walkover. It’s a bittersweet result for EC3 — their first win of the tournament comes without a ball bowled. The Paramveers’ tournament has been severely disrupted by availability issues, a difficult situation for all involved.

MATCH 2 | Central East Stars vs Midwest Thunderbirds
Midwest Thunderbirds won by 6 wickets
The Thunderbirds continue their impressive run of form with a composed chase. Central East Stars posted a competitive 134 all out in 35 overs, with Kirti V (36 off 37), JV V (30 off 40), and Kumar D (23 off 40) doing the bulk of the scoring. Keyur P was excellent with the ball, returning 3-26 to keep the Stars in check. Captain Anshul Bamrolia then took centre stage with a superb 71 off 87 to anchor the chase, supported by a solid 33 from Apparsamy B, as the Thunderbirds cruised home at 135/4 in 30.4 overs with six wickets to spare.
🏅 Man of the Match: Anshul Bamrolia (71) | 🤝 Spirit of the Game: Keyur Patel (3-26)

MATCH 3 | Alphas Kings XI vs A-Boys
A-Boys won by 2 wickets
Another nail-biting two-wicket thriller to close out the day — this tournament is delivering some classic finishes! Alphas Kings XI were bowled out for 126 in 40.3 overs, with Adnan R (32 off 78) and Srikanth R (24 off 50) offering the most resistance. Mukesh Seelal was outstanding with the ball, claiming 2-17 in his full 8 overs with relentless accuracy, while Shafiq J led the A Boys attack brilliantly with 4-20. A-Boys then produced a nervy but ultimately successful chase, reaching 127/8 in 24.3 overs. Ketan P top-scored with a vital 42 off 49, Shane F chipped in with 27, and Noman A (22 off 24) provided the lower-order grit needed. Himanshu Patadia’s 3-24 gave AKX real hope, but A-Boys held their nerve to sneak home.
🏅 Man of the Match: Mukesh Seelal (2-17) | 🤝 Spirit of the Game: Himanshu Patadia (3-24)
