The last over at Father Prabhu Hall.

The scene was set...
It was like the last over of a Cricket Match.
Tensions were running high.

Along came the batsmen, some with runs in the last match and others with hard time spent in nets. But still the pressure was there.

There were only three balls to play and thirty runs to score.

An anxious lull prevailed as people prepared for the first ball.
Can't say if someone saw it coming. But it was a bouncer....

The deafining silence was now sprinkled with sporadic grunts of disbelief.

Few lucky one were able to connect with the bat, though most got caught at slips.
A few of those may have beaten the slip cordon to score some runs...
And by golly they deserve all of it.

The dressing room was full was people who managed to score ducks.
And people were asked to pad up again for the second innings in just five minutes.
