Warriors Collapse to 118
Pursuing 191, Warriors of Dehradun never gained momentum and they finished their innings at 118/9 in 20 overs. Anjaneya Suryavanshi (33) and Sagar Rawat (29) attempted to stabilize the chase, but the absence of partnerships devastated the Warriors enormously. Skipper Yuvraj Chaudhary managed just 16 runs.
On the bowling side of Haridwar, Abhay Chhetri stood out with 3 wickets, breaking Dehradun’s batting line and handing an emphatic victory to his team.
Haridwar Spring Elmas maintain their winning streak with this score, and Dehradun Warriors will try to stage a comeback hard in their next games.
