Ra'anana clinched the Israeli Under 19 title with convincing win over Ashdod/Lod.
Star batsmen Itamar Kehimkar played some majestic shots to reach 50. But with partners and overs running out, he played one shot too many and was caught magnificently on the boundary by fellow Israel senior player Josh Evans. Kehimkar was ably supported by Ashdod/Lod captain Yossi Ochayon who chipped in with a patient 31 and shared in an 80-run partnership with Itamar. Josh Foley-Comer, Gil Nojman and Rafi Schachat took two wickets a piece.
Evans (58) steered Ra'anana home eight wickets and six overs to spare.
