Mediumpacer Vineet Jain and left arm spinner Pradeep Jaincombined to get rid of the top four batsmen, all bowled, as Serviceslost wickets at regular intervals.

There was no joy for the Servicesbowlers as Sehrawat occupied the crease for over two and a half hours.Striking the ball to the fence nine times in his essay, Sehrawatauthored an easy nine wicket win.
