ITANAGAR, 28 Aug:<\/strong> In the third match of the second edition of the Arunachal Test Championship (ATC), Arunachal Institute of Cricket (AIOC) showcased all-round dominance to secure a comfortable win over Ngurang James Cricket Club (NJCC), based on a first innings lead.<\/p>\n Batting first after winning the toss, NJCC were bundled out for just 73 runs in 27.5 overs. None of their batters could convert starts into a substantial knock, with only Nabam Abo (18), Tarum Jr (15), and Hansey (17*) offering some resistance. AIOC’s bowling attack, spearheaded by Lalit Deva (4\/7 in 9 overs), Zingbo Kino (2\/30), and Chandeep Singh (2\/24), dismantled NJCC’s batting lineup.<\/p>\n In reply, AIOC stamped their authority with the bat, piling up 281\/8, declared in 72 overs. The innings was headlined by an outstanding performance from their coach-cum-mentor Lalit Deva, who struck a magnificent 119 runs off just 97 balls, laced with 13 fours and 6 sixes. He was ably supported by Patey Tacha (51), Leki (39), and Sosar Kakum (24).<\/p>\n For NJCC, skipper Tarum Jr fought hard with 3 wickets, while Myendung Singhpo claimed 2\/45.<\/p>\n With a massive first-innings lead of 208 runs, AIOC enforced their dominance.<\/p>\n NJCC’s second innings started poorly, collapsing to 25\/3 at stumps, with Lalit Deva again striking with the ball (1\/1 in 4 overs) and Zingbo Kino picking up two quick wickets.<\/p>\n The match concluded as a victory for AIOC, based on first innings lead, securing them 3 crucial points in the round-robin league.<\/p>\n The undisputed star of the contest was Lalit Deva, who not only guided his team as a mentor but also led from the front with both bat and ball. His all-round brilliance earned him the man of the match award.<\/p>\n Speaking on the occasion, tournament director Suraj Tayam said: “The Arunachal Test Championship is more than just a competition – it’s a platform for players to prove their skills and inspire the next generation. I urge all teams to continue playing with discipline and pride for Arunachal cricket.”<\/p>\n The final league match of the round-robin stage will see ICC face AIOC from 29-30 August at AIOC, Jullang.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ITANAGAR, 28 Aug: In the third match of the second edition of the Arunachal Test Championship (ATC), Arunachal Institute of Cricket (AIOC) showcased all-round dominance to secure a comfortable win over Ngurang James Cricket Club (NJCC), based on a first innings lead.
