Ganga International’s total of 114/9 was set up by a half-century from Jatin Dalal before St Sophia’s School faltered in the chase. Abhishek Vats and Rohit Mehta claimed three wickets each.
Ravindra Public School defeated Government School (Bharat Nagar) by nine wickets with 14.4 overs to spare in a Group N league game.
