Surrey Hawks I Struggle to Capitalize After Strong Start

Opting to bat first, Surrey Hawks I were bowled out for 145 in 39 overs, with their innings marked by several starts but no significant partnerships.

However, Sanjay Gurmukhani stood firm under pressure, playing a match-winning knock of 72 off 74 balls, including 3 fours and 7 sixes, anchoring the chase and keeping the scoreboard ticking.

Despite a few more hiccups in the middle order, a composed 24 not out from Jashnoor Aulakh and a crucial stand with tail-ender Bikramjeet Singh Aulakh ensured Ind-Can crossed the finish line in just 31 overs, finishing at 146/7.
