Maharaja Trophy 2025: Mangaluru Dragons Overcome Hubli Tigers In Top-of-the-table Clash
Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20: Mangaluru Dragons secured a 16-run win over Hubli Tigers as they played out a nail-biting match in the Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20 at the Srikantadatta Narasimharaja Wadiyar Stadium here on Friday. Macneil Hadley Noronha and Aneesh K.V. helped the Dragons notch up a formidable score of 195 in the top-of-the-table clash. Followed by a brilliant four-wicket haul from Kranthi Kumar to secure the victory over the Tigers.
The Dragons struck early in the first innings when Lochan S. Gowda (5) was run out by Taha in the first over. In the third, Sharath Belur Ravi fell for 2, to Achar. However, opener Macneil Hadley Noronha (56) steadied the innings with a fluent knock studded with four boundaries and two sixes, forging a 107-run stand in just 77 balls with Aneesh K.V. (62).
Trying to accelerate in the 15th over, Aneesh perished on the first ball of Nithin Shanthaveri’s spell. Aadarsh Prajwal S. (19) came in swinging, but Noronha’s dismissal soon after was caught by M.D. Taha stalled the Dragons’ charge. Nithin then removed Aadarsh to leave them wobbling at 147/5 in the 17th over.
