CHENNAI: It was a batters’ paradise as centuries rained all around in TNCA’s first division on Tuesday. In particular, Shivam Singh turned up the heat, converting his overnight century into a memorable double, with Ashwanth Valthappa and Abinav Kannan notching up impressive centuries elsewhere.

Meanwhile, Vijay Shankar, who moved away from Indian cricket also scored a handy 96 for MRC A, alongside Chaturved, who scored 79 against Globe Trotters. Barring these two, the talented Tamil Nadu all-rounder Sunny Sandhu also scored an impressive 92 against Young Stars CC.
