MANIK Radhwa has earned a call-up to the first team after taking 5-37 for Osterley 2000 A on Saturday.

Radhwa came to the crease with St Lukes, chasing 199, on 130-1, and ploughed through the rest of their order as they were bowled out for 180, taking Osterley top of the league.

Radhwa will team up in the first XI with Bakul Patel, who took equally impressive figures of 5-41 in their Premier clash with Wandsworth.

But not even the slow bowler's efforts could stop Osterley going down to a 110-run defeat.

Skipper Amar Rathor said: "We should have put Baku in earlier. He's the one who usually stops the train in its tracks if our fast bowlers are being hit all over the place."
