Pak Riders beat Austrian Cricket Tigers by 3 wickets!
Imran Asif 57* (29) and 3/12 Sikandar Hayat 33 (11) | Adeel Tariq 2/28
Amir Naeem got his side off to a fantastic start but thanks to a slight wobble in the middle, Pak Riders found themselves in dire straits. However, it needs to be remembered that it was Sikandar Hayat who swung the game back in the hands of Pak Riders and took it away from the grasp of Austrian Cricket Tigers.
The latter team will have no one to blame but themselves due to the way they bowled towards the end of the innings. They managed to allow Sikandar Hayat sneak this game away from them, and by the time they got his wicket, it was a tad too late.
This result will displease the Tigers a lot. They felt that they had got enough runs on the board, but sadly, that was not to be. Pak Riders, who will face Donaustadt in their next game of the day, will hope to take his confidence with them further into the competition as well.
