Gorkha 11 82/2 (6.4 overs) | Imran Khan 42(21), Suman Ghimire 20*(16) | Taj Muhammad 1/18 (2)
That was a clinical performance by the Gorkha 11. After restricting the Lisbon Capitals to just 78 runs in their 10 overs, the batters hardly broke a sweat in chasing it down. Opener Imran Khan set up the chase with some blitzkreig right from the outset. By the time he fell after a stroke-filled knock of 42, the game was firmly in the pockets of Gorkha 11. His opening partner, Suman Ghimire, gave him good support with a knock of 20 from just 16 deliveries. Rahul Kumar played a 4-ball 11 cameo at the end.
None of the bowlers in the Capitals' ranks seemed threatening. They had pinned lots of hope on skipper Rahul Bharadwaj but he couldn't make a mark at the start of the innings. Taj Muhammad and Mitul Patel picked up a wicket each but couldn't make much of a difference to the match situation.
With this defeat, the fortunes of Lisbon Capitals look much more precarious. On the other hand, Gorkha 11 storm right up to the top of the table.
Gorkha 11 beat Lisbon Capitals by 8 wickets with 20 balls to spare!
6.4 Mitul Patel to Suman Ghimire, FOUR! That's it! That's the game. Swipes it across the line and finds the mid-wicket boundary. As easy as it gets
6.3 Mitul Patel to Manjit Singh, length ball outside off. Jabs it out to point and takes one. Scores are level!
6.2 Mitul Patel to Rahul Kumar, OUT! Goes for the big hit once again. Gets the elevation but just not enough distance this time. Excellent catch in the deep, balancing just inside the boundary rope
6.1 Mitul Patel to Rahul Kumar, SIX! Over the mid-wicket fence. Too full and straight from Mitul. It's bread and butter for Rahul. He just picks it up off a length and deposits the ball over the cow corner fence
