Three days later, Tilak was happy to play anchor. He came in at 18 for 2 in the fourth over, with Gill and Suryakumar’s lean returns continuing.

Despite hitting two boundaries, Tilak was only on 21 off his first 24 balls. But even then those fours hinted at his confidence: the first was a clean loft over mid-on, the next a bold scoop over short-fine leg. He ultimately upped the tempo and finished with 51 from 41, though he did enjoy some luck.

When on 25, his pull shot was anticipated by Shepherd at short fine leg, where he stuck his right hand up only for the ball to brush it and trickle to the rope; on 30, McCoy ran and dived to his left from long-on, but dropped another tough chance.

But a reverse-sweep for four and a heave over short fine for six soon after showed Tilak still wasn’t afraid to take his chances. (ESPNcricinfo)

The facility was specifically designed to enhance the value-added production of peanuts cultivated within the community, catering to new and existing agro-processors.

It is expected to have a positive impact on the lives of more than 200 individuals, offering them the opportunity to generate additional income while improving their skills in business development.

While offering remarks, Minister Mustapha said that the government has been building similar facilities across the country to promote and facilitate agro-processing and value-added production.

He said that facilities are now being constructed in hinterland areas to boost the village economies.

The facility will benefit all stakeholders, enabling them to access better prices for their products by expanding their presence in local and international markets through value-added production. By installing modern equipment, the facility will achieve greater efficiency in producing high-demand items like peanut butter, roasted peanuts, parched peanuts, and cashew nuts, resulting in more favorable prices than selling raw products.
