Cricket Club of India's left-arm spinners Hitesh Parmar and Sujit Nayak did star turns at the Brabourne Stadium to help their team beat Muslim United Sports Club on the first innings in the 'A' division of the Dr HD Kanga Cricket League yesterday. Parmar was introduced into the attack in the fifth over the day by skipper Paul Valthaty after rain caused a delayed start at the Churchgate club.

Muslim United went into the luncheon interval at 25 for no loss, but off-spinner Aniket Redkar struck immediately on resumption. Parmar, who has served CCI for eight years, claimed the next five wickets while bowling from the Churchgate end before Nayak claimed the next four. He returned with remarkable figures of 1.4-1-0-4 as CCI bowled out their opposition for 64. The hosts reached 66 for six declared and the match ended with Muslim United on 66 for three. Pacer Sachin Chaudhary claimed all the six CCI wickets to fall.
