Istanbul KSK 123/4 (10) beat Academic - MU Sofia 70/6 (10) by 53 runs
A dominant performance by Istanbul KSK and they have been the better side in this contest undoubtedly! They have bowled supremely and their bowling has won them yet another match. They got a wicket off the first delivery and kept chipping away at the wickets, all while keeping a check on the flow of runs too!
The MU Sofia batters never got going and they were perhaps undone in the powerplay itself. In the end, there was far too much left to be done and their middle order could not step up to the task. They will be disappointed with this performance as it has exposed the chinks in their armour.
