That's it from this match, folks! It's the pair of Rudransh and Bidipto signing off for Sportskeeda.
What a turn-around, what a game!
Panjab win by six wickets with 14 balls to spare!
Rajmani Sandhu 51 (12) | Hardeep Singh 2/13 (2) Zain Ali 51 (16) | Muhammad Arslan 1/13 (2)
One of the best games of the season not to have gone to the final over. An amazing display of passion and skill from both teams but just goes Panjab's way. Cividate were like wolves when they started to defend this clearly under-par score and blew the Panjab top-order with their pace and intensity.
Arslan, Zain, Babar and Muzzaffar all kept on hitting the hard lengths. Most catches went to the wicketkeeper and the batting team was at 34/4 in no time. Rajmani, who has had flashes of brilliance to show this season, hit a couple of meaty blows against Muzzaffar soon after he took the fourth wicket to start a shift in momentum.
Then Cividate made the big mistake of following this over with spin instead of giving Babar a second immediately. The latter was forced to change ends and Rajmani hit both overs for plenty to reach his 50 off just 12 balls. Monu, who was struggling at the other end, joined the party when the pressure was off and hit the winning runs. Panjab have made it to the semi-finals in brilliant fashion in their first appearance in the tournament.
7.4 Zain Ali to Monu Lal, PANJAB ARE THROUGH TO THE SEMI-FINALS! Length ball on leg-and-middle. Monu swings hard across the line and finds the gap behind square on the on-side to pick up four runs!
7.4 Zain Ali to Monu Lal, WIDE down the leg-side here with the fuller delivery! Time to bowl it again.
7.3 Zain Ali to Monu Lal, FOUR LEG-BYES! Length ball at the pads. A miss of the flick around the corner but it takes the back leg and runs away to fine-leg!
7.2 Zain Ali to Monu Lal, back of a length and at the body. A miss of the short-arm pull on the back foot this time, no leg-bye either.
7.1 Zain Ali to Monu Lal, FREE HIT! SIX! Full around off-stump. Monu swings across the line and gets a top edge over the keeper for a maximum! This is what momentum does to you, doesn't it?
Free hit coming up!
7.1 Zain Ali to Monu Lal, SIX RUNS! NO BALL FOR HEIGHT TOO! Full toss over middle-and-leg. Helped away off the back foot over long-leg for a maximum!
What an innings from Rajmani. A 12-ball fifty for him in the biggest match for his team. The mood in the Panjab camp has changed completely now. Babar bowled such a good first over but this one has been completely opposite.

6.6 Babar Azan to Rajmani Sandhu, SIX MORE! Short around off-stump. Rajmani stays back and hooks it away off the middle of the bat well over deep square-leg for a maximum! 50 for Rajmani here!
6.5 Babar Azan to Rajmani Sandhu, SIX RUNS! Low full toss around off-stump. Rajmani gets under it and slices it away over the deep cover point fielder for a maximum!
6.5 Babar Azan to Rajmani Sandhu, short and just outside leg-stump. Rajmani misses the pull to fine-leg and the umpire calls it a WIDE!
6.4 Babar Azan to Rajmani Sandhu, SIX! Good length ball around off-stump. Rajmani makes a bit of room and slaps it high and handsome over deep cover point for a maximum!
6.3 Babar Azan to Monu Lal, slightly short on off-stump. Pulled around to backward square-leg off the back foot for a single on this occasion.
6.2 Babar Azan to Rajmani Sandhu, OH NO! Back of a length around off-stump. A miscued pull shot on the back foot that lands safely between mid-wicket and mid-on! One run taken in the end.
6.1 Babar Azan to Monu Lal, back of a length on off-stump. Tapped to the cover point area off the back foot for a single.
Change of ends for Babar Azan
Rajmani is keeping Panjab in this. He has been one of their best players with both bat and ball this season but hasn't played an awful lot.
