Commentary

That's it from me, Rajarshi, and my co-commentator Maanas, as we conclude our coverage of the ECS for today. We have one more big game coming up tonight; Ireland take on India in the 2nd and final T20I at Dublin, so hop on here as Shashwat and Sooryanarayanan take you through an action-packed contest! From us, it's a hearty goodbye for now, until we meet again!

The final over isn't required, Milan Kingsgrove book a place in the quarter-finals berth as Ayeshmantha finishes things off in sumptuous fashion, a six over cow corner off the final ball of the penultimate over! The ECS journey for this year comes to an end for Cantu, they tried their best to pull things back, defending a meagre target of 71, and at one stage, you could not tell who had the advantage! Dinuk Samarawickrama hit a boundary, he was dismissed shortly after, Harsha Wass came and went, Nimna de Silva was taking the bowlers on, once he mindlessly lost his middle stump at the end of the powerplay, MKCC were in a spot of bother.

Shenal Ayeshmantha and Adnan Malik took them to 42 before Malik, too, went for an ill-advised hoick and saw his middle-stump disappear. It could have been 5 soon after once Ayeshmantha found the Sami Ullah at square leg, only for the ball to burst through his hands and drop over the ropes. The game could have taken a completely different turn right then, and another time, at the start of the 8th over, when Ayeshmantha was inexplicably dropped again. He almost holed out a third time when he took on the square leg boundary yet again, and just about cleared the fielder there. With the target down to single figures in the penultimate over, Cantu went with Hamza Habib in place of the sling-arm actioned Asad Raja, and the game was gradually taken by Milan Kingsgrove CC, Ayeshmantha, fittingly, applying the finishing touches.

8.6 Hamza Habib to Shenal Ayeshmantha, SIX! BANG! And Milan Kingsgrove are through to the playoffs! A yorker gone horribly wrong as he ends up bowling a juicy full toss on the middle stump line, easy pickings for the well-set Shenal, who absolutely muscles it over the mid-wicket region! A nervy chase but Milan Kingsgrove get the job done in the end. With an over to spare as well! Should the penultimate have been given to Asad Raja? Well Cantu can only think about the possibilities as their campaign comes to an end. However, they have had their moments in this game and will take plenty of positives going into the next season.

8.6 Hamza Habib to Shenal Ayeshmantha, WIDE! Oh dear! Length ball on the middle stump angled in, sliding down the leg side and the ump stretches his hands.

8.5 Hamza Habib to Shenal Ayeshmantha, back of a length ball outside off, Shenal has a wild hoick across the line but to no avail.

8.4 Hamza Habib to Dinesh Samarawickrama, into the blockhole and on the off stump, Dinesh jams that out and gets it down to long off for a single.

8.3 Hamza Habib to Dinesh Samarawickrama, no run, played straight to the fielder at cover and it is a dot ball!

8.2 Hamza Habib to Shenal Ayeshmantha, banged in short and on the middle stump line, Shenal pulls that towards deep square leg for a single.

8.1 Hamza Habib to Dinesh Samarawickrama, length ball on the middle stump line, Dinesh taps that in front of cover and scamper across for a quick single.

Hamza Habib (1-0-8-0) is back into the attack

A cat is supposed to have nine lives, how many did Ayeshmantha have in today's game? Dropped catch, dropped catch, the ball goes over the fielder for six. That has been the pattern. The target's down to single figures now with two overs left....

Shahid Waseem

7.6 Shahid Waseem to Shenal Ayeshmantha, SIX! Is that the game there? A touch full and on the middle stump swinging in, easy pickings for Shenal, who uses his wrists to flick that over the square leg region for a huge maximum! Absolutely no chance for the square leg fielder to catch that as it fails over his head! The dropped catch is proving to be pretty costly!

7.5 Shahid Waseem to Dinesh Samarawickrama, length ball outside off, Dinesh camps on the back-foot and punches that towards sweeper cover for a single.

7.4 Shahid Waseem to Shenal Ayeshmantha, full and on the fourth stump line, Shenal looks to hoick it away but inside-halves it towards deep square leg for a single.

7.3 Shahid Waseem to Shenal Ayeshmantha, length ball outside off swinging in, Shenal shuffles across and flicks that over the mid-wicket region. The long on fielder runs around and some fancy footwork from him saves a couple of runs for his side.

7.2 Shahid Waseem to Dinesh Samarawickrama, full and on the middle stump line, Dinesh punches it down to long on for a single.

7.1 Shahid Waseem to Shenal Ayeshmantha, DROPPED! At long off and the batters take a single. How costly will that prove to be?

Asad Raja with his slingy action is proving to be a game-changer!
