Bulgaria won by 6 runs Kushaa; Krishnakumar 36(14) | Muhammad Fahad 35(20) Huzaif Yousuf 2-18 | Murad Ozbek 2-21(2)
Turkey fought hard but they fell shot again. Bulgaria get revenge for their heavy defeat at the hands of Turkey yesterday. Those extra 15-20 runs that Bulgaria added towards the backend proved effective for them to cross the finish line eventually. Chasing a huge total, Turkey didn't get off to a good start as their reliable openers Ozberk and Elec fell cheaply
They recovered from the early setback as the partnership between Fahad and Ozturk helped them to stay alive in the contest. The asking rate kept climbing up to 15 and Yousuf got rid of both the well-set batters to hand an upper hand to Bulgarians. Turkey came up short but they have another stern task against the Greece side in the final match of the campaign. Can they put an end to Greece's unbeaten record?

8.1 Huzaif Yousuf to Mecit Ozturk, short outside off-stump. A big swing across the line and a miss! Dot ball here.
The yorkers have been nailed to perfection in the first five deliveries but the batters couldn't get underneath the ball. However, Fahad sends the last delivery out of the ground and gives a strong fist
