J Suresh Kumar (118) came up with a match-winning century as RKS Cricket Academy got the better of TI Cycles S & RC by a mammoth 152 runs in a TNCA Second Division ‘Elite’ contest here.
Batting first, RKS posted a huge total of 372 for nine in its stipulated overs, thanks to Suresh’s 80-ball 118. Suresh, whose innings was studded with 12 fours and three maximums, was well supported by S Senthil Nathan (93), who fell seven runs short of a ton.
