ISPL Season 3: Falcon Risers Hyderabad beat Srinagar Ke Veer after Vicky Bhoir's heroics

Falcon Risers Hyderabad beat Srinagar Ke Veer by 6 wickets in ISPL Season 3, powered by Vicky Bhoir's sensational hat-trick. Full match report.

"Bhoir ripped through the Srinagar top order... to complete a memorable hat-trick. - Match Report"

Surat, January 28

Falcon Risers Hyderabad registered a comprehensive 6-wicket victory over Srinagar Ke Veer in the Indian Street Premier League Season 3 at the Lalbhai Contractor Stadium on Tuesday, riding on a sensational hat-trick by Vicky Bhoir.

Chasing a modest target of 49, Hyderabad completed the task in just 6.5 overs, finishing at 52/4. The match was defined by a devastating bowling spell from Hyderabad's Vicky Bhoir. Bhoir ripped through the Srinagar top order in the second over, claiming three wickets in three consecutive deliveries.

He dismissed Aryan Naik (6), bowled Mangesh Vaity for a golden duck, and trapped Arvind Kumar lbw on the final ball of the over to complete a memorable hat-trick. The triple blow left Srinagar reeling at 6/3.

Srinagar Ke Veer never recovered from the early collapse. Amol Nilugade attempted to anchor the innings with 16 off 16 balls before retiring out, but wickets continued to tumble. Dhananjay Bhintade contributed 8 runs, while extras (6) were the next highest contributor.

The Hyderabad bowling unit remained disciplined; along with Bhoir's 3/10, Parveen Kumar (1/14) and Akash Gautam (0/0 in 1 over) kept the pressure on.

Srinagar eventually reached 48/8 in their 10 overs.

In reply, Falcon Risers Hyderabad came out swinging. Opener Prashant Gharat set the tone with a blistering 21 off just 11 balls, striking three sixes.

Although Srinagar's Dilip Binjwa provided a glimmer of hope by removing both Sanskar Dhyani (12) and Yogesh Penkar (2) in his lone over (2/9), the target proved too small to defend.

Despite losing four wickets, including a quick-fire 6 from Pappu Todkar, Hyderabad remained in control. Unbeaten batters Nitin Anili Matunge (7*) and Rutik Gajar (5*) guided the team across the finish line with 19 balls to spare, securing crucial points in the standings.

On Wednesday, Bengaluru Strikers take on Ahmedabad Lions.

Brief scores: Falcon Risers Hyderabad 52/4 in 6.5 overs (Prashant Gharat 21, Sanskar Dhyani 12, Dilip Binjwa 2-9) beat Srinagar Ke Veer 48/8 in 10 overs (Amol Nilugade 16, Dhananjay Bhintade 8, Vicky Bhoir 3-10) by 6 wickets.

While Bhoir was brilliant, Srinagar's batting was a big letdown. 48/8 in 10 overs is just not competitive at this level. They need to work on their technique against quality pace. Hope they bounce back.

Prashant Gharat's cameo was crucial! 21 off 11 with three sixes gave them the momentum right from the start. Chase was over before it even began. Exciting to see such talent in the ISPL.

As a new follower of Indian cricket leagues, I'm impressed by the fast pace of these matches! A full game in under two hours is perfect for an evening watch. The energy in Surat must have been electric.

Respect to Dilip Binjwa for his fight. 2 wickets in his only over when the team was down and out shows heart. But defending 49 was always a mountain to climb. Srinagar needs their top order to fire.

The ISPL is doing a great job of taking cricket to smaller cities and discovering raw talent. Players like Bhoir might not be household names yet, but performances like this put them on the map. Great for the sport's depth in India.
