So that will be it from this first game of the series at Scott Page Field. The second match begins in a little more than couple of hours from now at 6:30 PM IST. So do catch us live for that one. This is the pair of Mohul and Bidipto taking your leave. Keep following Sportskeeda!
The catch in the first over at fine-leg by Thomas Zotos must have given Greece a lot of hope, but after that, it was all Czechia!
Sazib Bhuiyan and Ritik Tomar did the bulk of the work and then, Sabawoon Davizi came out to give some of the finishing touches. Fielding from Greece wasn't up to the mark either.
The only consolation for Greece is that they have been able to get a point out of this. But it's three points and early advantage to the hosts in this five-match series.
8.0
7.3 Georgios Galanis to Sazib Bhuiyan, SIX! CZECHIA WIN THIS GAME! Floated at a length on off, turns away. Bhuiyan gets under it and he needs no second invitation to slog it up and over deep midwicket for a maximum!
7.2 Georgios Galanis to Sazib Bhuiyan, floated at a length on off, turns away. Bhuiyan swings hard and misses.
7.1 Georgios Galanis to Sazib Bhuiyan, back of a length and wide outside off, turns away. Bhuiyan cuts it away to wide of deep cover for a brace.
Well, some consolation for Greece. They will take the bonus point from this game! But it's only one hit away for the hosts now!
