The medium pace duo of Fahim Athanikar (5 for 7) and Meghan Pednekar (five for 18) did the damage as SPY won on the first innings.
Pednekar claimed his third five wicket-haul in four matches. SPY declared after scoring 99 for nine in which Kshitij Kanade scored an unbeaten 42. PDTSA scored 69 for four in the second innings.
Athanikar, a Mumbai U-19 probable, told mid-day: "I am enjoying the support and confidence of my teammates and from my opening partner Meghan in particular. That's why I've been able to perform consistently this season."
Cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar's son Arjun claimed 5 for 36 with his left-arm medium pace for Amar CC who dismissed Star CC for 77 in a 'C' division match at Young Zorastrian ground, Azad Maidan.
