That brings us to the end of our coverage for this encounter. Till the next time, this is me (Arya Sekhar Chakraborty) signing off also on behalf of my fellow commentator and good mate Soumarya Dutta.
Markhor Milano won by 10 wickets (with 24 deliveries to spare)
It turned out to be a thoroughly convincing win for Markhor Milano as they made light work of the target of 116 and won the game by 10 wickets and with four overs to spare. It was an exhibition of power-hitting from Asjad Butt and Ahtasham Javaid and the Cividate bowlers were not able to break the partnership.
Butt and Javaid both remained unbeaten on 56 off 18 deliveries. While Butt smashed 3 fours and 7 sixes, Javaid's knock was studded with 4 fours and 6 sixes. Right from the first over, the onslaught continued and none of the bowlers could find any answers infront of their brutal onslaught. They kept dishing out slot deliveries and everything went out of the ground.
This win will give Markhor Milano a lot of confidence as they were languishing at the bottom half of the table. For Cividate, they didn't look like a team who had played so well in the tournament before this encounter. It will be interesting to see how they recover from this morale-shattering defeat.

This is quite astonishing hitting from Asjad Butt as Markhor Milano picked up 31 runs from that over as sixes kept flowing and there seems to be no way back for Cividate. If they can get the target in the next three overs, they will grab full points from the game.
