DY Patil T20 Cup: Mandals All-round Show Leads Canara Bank Into Final Against Mumbai Customs

DY Patil T20 Cup: Ajay Mandals all-round show helped Canara Bank beat DY Patil Red by three runs in the semifinal of the 20th DY Patil T20 Cup at the DY Patil Stadium on Friday. Mandals impressive showing meant Canara Bank will take on Mumbai Customs in the final, after the latter sealed a five-wicket win over DY Patil Blue. Mandal anchored Canara Banks innings by hitting 46 as they posted 181/9 in 20 overs. DY Patil Reds left-arm pacer Naman Tiwari (4-33) grabbed a hat-trick in the final over, dismissing Mandal, Lavish Kaushal, and KB Pawan. Chasing 182, DY Patil Red looked well placed at 132/3, but the dismissal of skipper Krunal Pandya triggered a collapse, and they finished three runs short. Mandal (3-22), Kaushal (2-20), and Shreesha Achar (2-30) were the standout bowlers for Canara Bank. Meanwhile, at the DY Patil University Ground, Chinmay Sutar powered Mumbai Customs with a 44-ball 74, including six fours and five sixes, to chase down DY Patil Blues 156/9 in just 15.3 overs. Fast bowler Mayank Yadav (2-29) bowled well for DY Patil Blue, but Customs were never in trouble. Earlier, veteran pacer Sandeep Warrier (4-28) was the standout for Customs with the ball. Mumbai Customs will face Canara Bank in the final, to be held later on Friday night. Brief scores: Fast bowler Mayank Yadav (2-29) bowled well for DY Patil Blue, but Customs were never in trouble.
