Bharath, Vishal, Ashish, Faiz, Jaffar, Kiran impress in knockouts.
Six five-wicket hauls and two centuries were the highlights of the Ghulam Ali Trophy one-day knockout tournament organised by Hyderabad Cricket Association in the city.
Gulshan of Tirumala bowled a terrific spell to help his team beat Mahboob College by a huge margin of 193 runs.

In another match, Faiz Ahmed scored a brilliant 100 while Jaffar played an unbeaten knock of 101 as Classic defeated HPS ‘B’ by 200 runs.
