DAR Indian Titans have prolonged the losing streak in the 2025 Tanzania Cricket Association (TCA) DC Super League, suffering a seven-wicket defeat to Patel Brotherhood A in a recent tie in Dar es Salaam.

The Group A game held at the Dar es Salaam Gymkhana Club (DGC) venue saw Dar Indian Titans reach 123/10 in 31.5 overs once they were put in to bat by Patel Brotherhood A, which had won the toss and elected to field.

Rohit Naidu, Roshan Gaussian, Sharwan Kumar, and Emmanuel Laurent happened to be the cricketers whose showing was instrumental in the Dar Indian Titans' acquisition of the encouraging figure.

Naidu garnered 32 runs, Gaussian grabbed 17 off 27, Kumar scored 16 off 18, and Laurent notched 23 runs. 

Twenty-three extras given away by the Patel Brotherhood A bowlers, to some extent, improved Dar Indian Titans' figure.

Experienced cricketers, Benson Mwita and skipper Vishal Patel mercilessly tormented Dar Indian Titans and managed to prevent the side from setting up a challenging target.

Mwita, a seasoned pacer, posted 4-32, and Patel had a slightly better contribution, finishing with 4-31.

With an achievable target in sight, Patel Brotherhood A duly got down to the successful chase - finishing with 126/3 in 28.2 overs.

Abubakar Juma was the batsman with the most runs, spearheading the successful chase with his 41 runs.

Acrey Pascal ended with 26 runs, Harsh Khidkikar chipped in with 15 off 83, and Patel dashed Dar Indian Titans' hopes away- grabbing 18 runs.

Twenty-six extras given away by Dar Indian Titans offered more relief to Patel Brotherhood A.
