Sana of SCCC also took two wickets in this innings as Sandeep managed a wicket.
SCCC then rode on Robinson's knock of 35 runs off 19 balls and Nanao's 33 off 20 balls to collect 124 runs for 9 in 19.4 overs and earn the narrow win.
Mehul of ESU also bowled well to notch up three wickets and Surjit and Sanker fetched two wickets apiece to give SCCC a torrid time in the chase but their effort fell short to contain their rivals.
Sana of SCCC was named man of the match for his 2 wicket haul and contribution of 12 runs in the chase.
