Our virgin game night (first game for our indoor season)…and in all honesty that’s exactly how we played 
.
The game was highly anticipated by most players but especially me as I was captaining our squad this season after giving the veteran captain (Jacinth) a rest. Big shoes to fill considering we won the last season we played when Jacinth was captain.
It did not start well for me…our first game and I had to sit out due to sickness but nonetheless we had enough players. Luckily it was a grading game so it wasn’t that important.
Everyone got to the game in time…this is a rarity as we all follow IST (Indian Standard Time 
) except this one dude who apparently forgot we had a game…Yes you know who you are 
. But then we did get a hold of him and managed to get him down to the venue in time.
Our batting performance was good, getting 140ish in the first game is not a bad effort at all but we were let down in the fielding department. Not to mention that we nearly won the game too…the other team needed one run off the last ball to win as the scores was tied…it was a dot ball which the keeper struggled with (who can blame him…king does bowl which such sheer pace). The batsmen had time to take a single and win the game…
Vengeance will be in our eyes next time
