That's it from here and hope you enjoyed the coverage. Until next time, this is Pragadeesh and Darpan signing off
What a run chase. It kept everyone on the edge until the final delivery. Fighters CC succumbed to a huge defeat at the hands of Punjab CC in the last outing but their aggressive batting approach at the start and some fireworks from Deepu & Parminder helped them to post a big total but in reply, Punjab CC got off to a brilliant start.
After tearing the Punjab bowlers apart, Deepu made his presence felt with the ball by coming up with a tripe strike to tilt the momentum in his side's favour but he can't keep up his good work in the final over. Imran latched onto his loose deliveries and smashed him for 31 runs. It seemed Jatinder had answers to Imran when he dragged the length back and angled it across but he couldn't keep up his goods in the penultimate over. Hardeep bowled a brilliant 8th over to give Fighters CC a chance but Jatinder fed Imran in the slot and got hit for three sixes.
Parminder applied the finishing touch with the bat but can't do it with the ball as the target was chased with two balls to spare
9.4 Parminder Singh to Muzammal Abbas, bowls to the right hander from around the wicket SIX!!!! ABBAS FINISHES IT OFF! It was angled away from the right hander, who threw his hands at the ball and slammed it over the covers for a winning six.
Muzammal Abbas, RHB, walks in at no.8
9.3 Parminder Singh to Lovepreet Singh, GONE! ANOTHER TWIST IN THE TALE! Fuller ball. He looked to hit it to midwicket. Inside edge and the ball ricocheted back on to the stumps.
Lovepreet Singh b Parminder Singh 19 (9b, 0x4, 0x6)
9.2 Parminder Singh to Lovepreet Singh, switches to over the wicket. Angles across the off side. SLASHED FOR SIX OVER POINT!! 3 runs to win off 4 balls.
9.1 Parminder Singh to Lovepreet Singh, starts off around the wicket to the left hander. Length, outside off. FLIES OFF THE OUTSIDE EDGE. FOUR TO THIRD MAN. 9 to win off 5 balls.
Parminder Singh to bowl the last over and he needs to defend 15 runs
Whenever Jatinder decided to bowl full, the ball easily sailed over the fielder. Why don't he bowl the good length deliveries consistently? The good thing from Fighters' point of view is that Imran won't be on strike in the final over
