Jamia bowlers managed to put a lid on the rate of scoring and may have claimed just five wickets but eventually restricted the total to a mere 117 runs.

Defending a modest total is never easy but Rewa boys managed to claim an early wicket to send a clear message that they were not going down without a fight.

Jamia though had enough firepower in their ranks. Shivam Sharma played an extremely responsible knock to guide his side.
