On a day when four bowlers picked up five wickets each in the HCA A4-A9 one-day league championship, 12-year-old MA Jayanth decided to make it count with a brilliant hundred, the first in his young career. He stood out on what was essentially a bowler’s day out in the field.

In a way, the youngster, who is making the seniors to take note of his latent talent, yet again demonstrated that he possesses rare temperament that saw him aggregate a phenomenal 382 runs in nine innings against bowlers much senior to him, both in terms of age and proven experience.

Turning up for Adams XI in the A-5 HCA league fixture, the lad opened the innings and remained unconquered on 118 in 39.5 overs.

In reply, Tirumala CC was shot out for 245 runs in 36.3 overs with Shahnawaz and Amith picking up three wickets each.

In another match, P Srikanth weaved magic with the ball to scalp five wickets conceding 28 runs, thus helping Vijaypuri Willowmen shoot out Vimco Cricket Club for 50.

In reply, Willowmen achieved the total in just 9.4 overs losing two wickets for a resounding victory.

Meanwhile, Secunderabad Club beat XI Masters by 50 runs. Batting first, the former scored 301 for the loss of five wickets in 35 overs with C V Anand (60 runs) and Jay Dev Reddy (62 runs) doing the bulk of the scoring. XI Masters managed 251 for 7 in 35 overs.
