There were many personal best from the match, Nilesh Lamichanay scoring 74 (113) with 13 fours was a gem of the inning, and won him Man of the Match. His 100-plus run partnership with Pankaj Rawat who scored 72 (157) was the base of the Sikkim win. Palzor Tamang claimed the first fifer at SICA ground was equally supported by Sumit Singh's four wickets in the Manipur second innings.

On the other hand, Manipur will always remember this game thanks to debutant Jotin Pheiroijam, who took 9 wickets in the first innings. Thus making a name in the record books. Ronald Longjam was good with his bats scoring 41 and 50 in two innings.
