KPL T10 takes off!!

The KPL T10 took off yesterday with an exciting match between the 2 junior teams - The Kilpauk Hawks & the Votive Eagles.

The Kilpauk Hawks won the match by 12 runs.

Put into Bat by the Votive Eagles, they made 48 runs in 10 overs. In reply to this the Votive Eagles could get only 37 Runs in the stipulated 10 overs. The man of the Match was Domininc Hawes of the Kilpauk Hawks.

The Votive Eagles captain Mark Corera had plans of restricting the Kilpauk Hawks to 20 odd runs, but the Kilpauk Hawks had a good batting line up. Being cheered on by the Cheering teams they went in and put a good total.

Blowing by the Kilpauk Hawks was almost perfect, showed that these guys had actually practiced before the match.

Now the Kilpauk Hawks will meet the formidable OLD MONKS in the finals next sunday.

Rev. Fr. Parish Priest inaugurated the tournament.

Over all it was an exciting, fun Match.

KILPAUK PARISH LEAGUE T10

In an effort of bring our Parish Community together & be more involved & Active, and also with the Cricket fever happening in our country, the YOUTH of our parish suggested organizing a Cricket match between the Youth and the Seniors of our Parish.
Thus, the KILPAUK PARISH LEAGUE T10 was formed.

This is not serious cricket at all, but it is also for the Die-Hard cricket fans. We would like to see all your suggestions being put across to the Indian & the IPL teams through the TV being put to use here and show them that you can do what you say!! Can you do that???

If you can do that then give in your names during the 11th of May 2008 and 18th of May 2008, at the cricket match to play for either the Juniors (below 30) or the seniors (above 30) for the next tournament in the coming months.

Currently there are 3 teams of 12 players each.
2 teams from the juniors (below 30) & 1 team from the seniors (above 30)
The Junior teams are called "KILPAUK HAWKS" & "VOTIVE EAGLES" the senior team is called "OLD MONKS" (ring a bell somewhere??!!!??)
