Unbelievable scenes. What a stunner of a contest we witnessed. Just when we thought the rain gods might play spoilsport in this encounter, we were treated to one heck of a chase. Liaqat, the man who smashed the tough deliveries to the football turf, has missed an easy full-toss in the last ball by lofting it straight to extra cover. That's Cricket sometimes and you have to bear all the pain once you are on the field.
This match was full of rain, raining sixes, and one thrilling finish. Britannia players are jumping in joy and why not. While Rehberge and Liaqat produced many special moments and surely they made good memories in this edition of ECS Cricket. We have one more match to go before the mega showdown. Follow Sportskeeda for all the updates. Until next time, this is Pragadeesh signing off on behalf of my fellow colleague, Navjeevan Rajput. Cheers.
