Hopkinton Lions capture cricket championship

Hopkinton Lions

The Hopkinton Lions captured the New England Cricket Association Division A title.

The Hopkinton Lions cricket team won the New England Cricket Association Division A championship, emerging victorious with a dominant performance against the Daredevils in the final on Sept. 15 at the Hopkinton YMCA field.

The Daredevils, who reached the final in their inaugural year in Division A, struggled from the outset, facing a relentless Lions bowling attack. Hopkinton’s Parasu Ramanan, Hanumesh Jojode and Sri Keerthi Mady were in outstanding form, consistently troubling the batsmen and preventing any significant partnerships from developing. The Daredevils’ innings crumbled under the pressure, as they were bowled out for a mere 81 runs in just 18.3 overs. Ramanan led the charge with his incisive spell, claiming crucial wickets that kept the opposition on their back feet throughout.

In response, the Lions approached the chase with confidence. Captain Akash Bogish took charge of the innings, displaying composure and skill. He scored a brisk 40 runs in steering his team toward victory. Tushar Daine provided a solid start, setting the tone for the chase, while Kaushik Balasubramanium ensured a steady middle-order presence.

The Lions completed the chase in just 14.4 overs, finishing at 87 for 3, securing a comfortable win. Bogish’s performance earned him the player of the match award, a fitting accolade for his impactful innings and tactical acumen.
