MPL T20 Scindia Cup 2026: Rewa Jaguars crush Bundelkhand Bulls by 9 wickets
Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Rewa Jaguars delivered a commanding all-round performance to dismantle Bundelkhand Bulls by nine wickets in the Madhya Pradesh League (MPL) T20 Scindia Cup 2026 at Holkar Stadium in Indore on Saturday, 6 June 2026. The Jaguars bowled the Bulls out for just 74 and then chased the target down in a mere 5.1 overs, wrapping up one of the most one-sided results of the tournament so far.
Bulls Collapse Under Bowling Pressure
After winning the toss and electing to field, Rewa seized the initiative from the opening delivery. A dropped catch off the very first ball handed Bundelkhand Bulls captain and opener Abhishek Pathak an early reprieve, but Ramveer Gujjar made no mistake on the very next ball, removing Harsh Gawali for a golden duck. That early breakthrough set the tone for a sustained batting collapse.
Wickets tumbled at regular intervals as the Jaguars' disciplined attack denied the Bulls any chance to rebuild. By the 12th over, Bundelkhand were reeling at 58 for 6, and the lower order offered little resistance. The Bulls were eventually bowled out for 74 in 15.3 overs.
Gujjar Leads the Bowling Attack
Ramveer Gujjar was the standout performer with the ball, returning exceptional figures of 3 for 16 in just 2.3 overs. He was ably supported by Sagar Solanki, Rohit Rajawat, and Prithviraj Singh Tomar, each claiming two wickets to complete a comprehensive bowling display.
The only resistance from the Bulls came from Parth Goswami, who top-scored with a measured 25 off 30 balls before being trapped lbw by Rohit Rajawat. He was the sole Bulls batter to reach double figures, starkly illustrating the depth of their batting troubles.
Raghuwanshi's Blitz Ends the Contest in Minutes
Rewa's chase was over almost before it began. Opener Akshat Raghuwanshi launched an extraordinary assault, hammering 42 runs off just 14 deliveries — an innings that featured four boundaries and four sixes. His strike rate effectively rendered the 74-run target academic within the first few overs.
The Jaguars crossed the line at 75 for 1 in 5.1 overs, completing a nine-wicket victory that was as emphatic as it was swift. The win underlines Rewa's credentials as one of the stronger outfits in the MPL T20 Scindia Cup 2026.
What This Result Means for the Tournament
The margin of victory — nine wickets with more than 85 balls to spare — signals Rewa Jaguars' potency across both departments. For Bundelkhand Bulls, the batting unit's inability to build partnerships remains a pressing concern heading into their next fixture. This is the kind of comprehensive defeat that can dent team confidence early in a tournament, and the Bulls' management will need to address their top-order fragility quickly.
