Posted: Fri Aug 12, 2022 8:23 pm
The current season of the Maharaja T20 Trophy 2022 is now a third of the way through the group stage. Six teams compete in the Maharaja T20 Trophy in 2022, and which is based around teams from Karnataka's top clubs.
The Maharaja T20 Trophy includes household names like Mayank Agarwal, Abhimanyu Mithun, and Manish Pandey as well as some more peripheral IPL players – despite this the most successful players thus far are relative newbies.
This is best seen in the relative anonymity of the most impressive bowlers. Shubhang Hegde is a 21 year old product of the Karanataka youth system who is definitely on RCB’s radar and has turned out as a net bowler for them previously. The young man, playing for Mysuru, has 7 wickets across the tournament with a best of 4-11. The sole fivefer so far comes from one of those players so obscure that they are missing a first name and a date of birth on Cricinfo. D. Avinash got his 5-40 in Shivamogga’s loss to Gulbaraga on Tuesday.
It seems like this is turning into something of a batsmen’s tournament in recent days – all of the top 7 scores have come in the last 3 days. Leading the way is 112* in 47 balls from Rohan Patil. If he wasn’t on an IPL radar he certainly is now. The second highest score came courtesy of a more familiar name – Mayank Agarwal. His 102* today in the evening game between Bengalaru and Shivamogga has added to his 139 from the last three games to see him clear as the top run scorer.
