THE FAMOUS TWELVE of “BARAH KE THATH”

When they named it barah ke thath initially i was little cynical about the name and i thought they could

have thought of a better name.but now i can say it “thath se” that barah ke thath was a great idea. now it has become a history.

our journey to the final and then winning the ruby cup could not have been more dramatic. this was the first time that a second year team has won the most talked about and fiercly fought tournament of NIT TRICHY.

THE BATSMEN

THE WINNING MOMENT :

we needed 2 runs of the last 2 ball of the inning to win. shushant was on striker’s end. here comes Shishir with the penultimate ball of the match. the ball was outside the off stump, shushant misses it completely. NO RUN.

now we needed 2 of the last ball of the match to win and 1 to tie. we were all praying for atleast a single. here goes shishir with the last ball of the tournament which will decide the winner (or will it be a tie).

Again the ball is pitched outside off. Again Shushant misses it completley.(oh GOD now what..).

Then Lakra (who was the other batsman) shouted his famous two words “bhaag bhaag”. Manish (the wicket keeper) threw the ball to the bowlers end the bowler fumbles to catch and they complete the run. Then Lakra shouted again “bhaag bhaag”. they were running for the second run. all the fielders were confused and fumbling they complete the run and thus the famous trophy was grabbed from the clutches of defeat.
