Mangalore, April 29: Putting up a scintillating all-round show, Team Mangalore beat Former Zimbabwe captain Heath Streak's men by 38 runs in a T20 encounter at NMPT Ground, Panambur, on Sunday.

Batting first the Mangalore team named as Western Institute Karnataka Indians scored a mammoth 193 runs in their allotted 20 overs.

Opener Naushad starred for Karnataka Indians blasting 72 off 49 deliveries while Gurudeep also contributed with a half century scoring 50 off 37 balls.

The Karnataka Indians lost 6 wickets during the course of their innings. For Property Infratech Zimbabwe Africans, Pomie Mbangwa picked up two wickets giving away 27 runs while Elton Chigumbura, Raymond Price and Douglas Marillier picked up a wicket apiece.

In reply, the Zimbabwe Africans had a tough time negotiating the pace of Sampath Kumar who picked up 3 wickets in his first spell, including 2 in one over to put the African team on the backfoot straightaway.

Sampath Kumar accounted for former captain of Zimbabwe Alistair Campbell (1) who opened with the current national team captain Brendon Taylor (3) and Charles Coventry (2) who held the record for the highest individual ODI score of 194 alongside Saeed Anwar of Pakistan for a long time until it was eclipsed by Sachin Tendulkar's double ton at Nagpur.

Grant Flower, another veteran of the Zimbabwe side showed his class with a few shots on either side of the wicket but his stay on the crease was brief too and he departed for 18 after being bowled by Karnataka Indians skipper Jayaprakash.

With almost half his side back in the hut, skipper Heath Streak stepped out to bat and with Douglas Marillier, put on 87 runs for the sixth wicket. While Streak hit some real big ones out of the park, Marillier played some of his trademark cheeky shots and reverse sweeps. However, the asking rate was too much for the Streak and Marillier to handle and they both departed ultimately scoring 59 and 28 respectively. Streak's half century comprised of four sixes and five fours while Marillier smashed four hits across the fence.

It was then a question of completing the formalities and Sampath Kumar returned to bowl the last over disturbing the timber of Terry Duffins and Dirk Viljoen off the last two bowls to snatch a five wicket haul. At the end of the innings, his figures read 5/22. Spinner Sumeeth scalped two wickets while Vinay GK and captain Jayaprakash picked up a wicket each. The Zimbabwe Africans could only manage 155, handing over a 38 run victory to the local team.

Naushad took home the 'Man of the Match' award for his splendid batting performance in addition to the 'Highest Score Award' as well.

Zimbabwe Africans skipper Heath Streak was awarded the 'Highest Sixes Award'. His teammate Douglas Marillier was awarded the 'Outstanding Spectacular Cricketer' award.

Gurudeep of Karnataka Indians won the 'Best Batsman' award while Elton Chigumbura and Sampath Kumar won the 'Best Fielder' and 'Best Bowler' awards respectively.

Bengaluru, July 23: The High Court of Karnataka has directed the state government to formulate Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for child protection, particularly for cases of child pornography and child missing.

A division bench comprising Chief Justice Abhay Shreeniwas Oka and Justice M Nagaprasanna passed a detailed order and asked the state government to submit compliance within three months.

The division bench passed the order on two PILs, including a suo motu litigation registered in 2018. The PILs were registered to ensure effective implementation of the directions of the Supreme Court on the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015 (JJ Act).

The bench observed that in normal courses, courts do not issue writ of mandamus to the legislature on rule-making aspects. However, when the failure of the state is demonstrated under exceptional circumstances, courts can issue directions. The bench directed the state government to expedite the rule-making process to ensure proper implementation of the JJ Act.

The bench expressed displeasure on the insensitive police investigation in cases of child pornography. “The police machinery did not show the sensitivity expected from it while dealing with cases of alleged child pornography. Therefore, it will be appropriate if the state issues SOP or guidelines for dealing with cases of child pornography so that proper investigation is carried out in such cases. As we are directing the formation of SOP for dealing with child pornography cases, the state is also directed to formulate guidelines on child missing cases,” the bench said.

The bench had been issuing several directions since 2018 and has also been monitoring police investigations. The court observed that while the state government has incorporated several directions, some issues still remain unaddressed.

The bench directed the government to have dedicated staff for the Directorate of Integrated Child Protection Scheme considering the sensitive nature of work.

On working of Juvenile Justice Boards (JJB), the court asked the Registrar General of the Karnataka High Court to issue directions to the principal magistrates of all the JJBs in the state to sit on all working days for a minimum of six hours a day. 

The high court directed the state to exercise the rule-making powers for obtaining an annual report from the State Commission for Protection of Child Rights.
