So, after a couple of rain interruptions and subsequent restarts, we finally have a no result. It is a shame because it seemed like setting up for a good contest at several points. Anyhow, that is it from here. Darpan Tikiya bids you goodbye. Stay tuned to Sportskeeda for more sporting action.
Final Update: Match has been abandoned and points will be shared.
Alas, it is the weather again that has the final say. Particularly annoying this time because we only needed 2 more overs before a result could be constituted. But well, this isn't something that is in anyone's control. So, we will have to bite the bullet and accept the verdict.
We need just two more overs to constitute a result here. However, for that to happen the rain has to stop. Fingers crossed.
Play stopped due to rain.
It has started pouring down heavily. If it doesn't stop soon, this would - alas - end up in a no result. A minimum of 3 overs are required to constitute a result. At the moment, the covers are on and so are the tyres and the wooden blocks on the top of them to keep them for flying away in this windy weather. We will keep you updated. Stay tuned.
OH NO! The players are walking off. We have another interruption. Remember, we need at least 3 overs to constitute a result.
The rain has gotten heavier.

0.6 Gursewak Singh to Ashraful Rupu, swing and a miss. Dot ball.
0.5 Gursewak Singh to Ashraful Rupu, tailing back in again. The batter tries to push it down the ground and misses. Cops up one on the body.
0.4 Gursewak Singh to Ashraful Rupu, SIX MORE!! Steps out and gets to the pitch off the ball and smashes a six down the ground.
0.3 Gursewak Singh to Ashraful Rupu, SHORT AND DISPATCHED!! Another six over the legside.
0.2 Gursewak Singh to Ashraful Rupu, BIG APPEAL FOR LBW!! Tailing back in and hits the batter above the knee roll. Umpire denies.
0.2 Gursewak Singh to Mohammad Asad, WIDE! Down the leg, keeper fumbles and they run a bye too.
0.1 Gursewak Singh to Mohammad Asad, SIX!!! WHAT A START. Short ball and it has been pulled over midwicket for a maximum.
We are set to go in the second innings.
Fighters CC have scored 56-2 in 5 overs. Friendship CC will have a target of 63. (Adjusted by DLS)
Parminder Singh 41 (17) | Sajjad Hossain 1/13
An entertaining innings that had it all. Some resolute defensive strokes from Dalwinder Singh followed by a hitwicket, a fumbled runout, rain interruption and some towering sixes off the bat of Parminder Singh.
Fighters CC have put on a fighting total but with the game shortened to just 5 overs, anything could happen. Expect the Friendship CC to come out swinging at every ball. That is because in a 5 overs contest, the value of each wicket goes down.
Stay tuned for a thrilling chase coming up.

Sajjad Hossin
1/13
4.6 Sajjad Hossain to Rahul, drills it down to long off and runs a non-existent second. The throw is wayward and the keeper collects it half way down the pitch. He decided not to throw in order to not concede an overthrow.
4.5 Sajjad Hossain to Parminder Singh, GONE!!!!!! Had to go for it. It was in the slot and this was the penultimate ball of the innings. But he gets deceived by the slowness of it and gets caught at long off.

4.4 Sajjad Hossain to Varinder Virk, MISCUED!! The ball lands in safe spaces at covers and they run a single.
