An all-round performance by Sagar Sharma (50 runs and 2/12) helped Sunrise Cricket Academy, Zirakpur, defeat Sporoot Cricket Club by eight wickets in the 1st IVCA Open Cash Prize Cricket Tournament.

Batting first, Sporoot Cricket Club scored 138 runs before getting all out in 23.1 overs with the help of Orminder Singh (38) and Prashant Tomar (36). Laksh Chawla claimed three wickets, while Sharma, Paras and Bhagvender Singh took two wickets each and Jassinder Singh took one for the bowling side.

In reply, the Zirakpur team posted 139/2 in 16.5 overs with the help of unbeaten 50-run contribution by Sharma. Arjun Azad (35), Tavlin (31) and Bhagvender Singh (13) were the other main scorers for the side. Ravi Verma and Babinder Ronnie took one wicket each for the bowling side.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
