Throwball “No twists, No Butterfingers. Show us your strong throws and that’s how the game goes…”and that is exactly how the game went. An all girls event, this one was definitely worth a watch. With the smashes and swings, the game wasn’t as easy to play as it looked. Over 14 teams from all over Mumbai participated in this game, which started with knock outs. The ICT team could not make it to the end this time, losing to Watumull in Quarter Finals. The SPIT girls team surprisingly won semifinals by defeating a very strong D. J. Sanghvi team. D. J. Sanghvi did give a tough fight to their opponent and the match was quite close. TSEC being the strongest team around had a convincingly smooth way to the finals. The finals between TSEC and SPIT was a good watch, but TSEC beat SPIT with 7-0 in one of the sets.
Cricket
This game in Sportsaga’10 being a player and public favourite and because it takes a bit longer to finish, kicked off at the Matunga Gymkhana a couple of days before Sportsaga ’10 was inaugurated. On the registration desk Season Ball Cricket got a very nice response with not many teams wanting to miss it. It started smoothly, but alas, it was not too long when it witnessed a bad day with our next door neighbours VJTI backing out of the tournament. So it was a day to forget & move ahead with Saga... ICT was knocked out of the tournament in the Quarter Finals in a match which ended on the last ball!! It was a big big upset but the Season Ball Cricket went on great with the finals be played between VIT & D. J. Sanghvi on the19th, D. J. Sanghvi winning the match and the tournament. Season Ball Cricket in Sportsaga is still waiting for its home team to reach the finals. Hope it gets to the top in Saga ’11. 7
