Player of the match: Fanyan Mughal
What an amazing match we have had today here between Royal Strikers and Marsa. It was an 5-over affair courtesy of the rain and the delay that followed due to wet outfield.
Marsa were set 41 runs to win from the 5 overs. Nowell Khosla who opened with Fanyan Mughal just clubbed 2 sixes in his stay and that got the job half done while the latter took care of the rest
Savio Thomas and Alvin John both went for 12 runs each in their lone overs and could not control the run rate of 8 as the match slipped away from them with every over. Koppaka's over sealed the deal for the Marsa CC as they had to chase only 5 runs in the last over.
Marsa CC beat Royal Strikers by 9 wickets with 2 balls to spare
That is it from this side, we hope you enjoyed the coverage as we bring you more such matches at Sportskeeda. So allow me, Anavit Naik in the company of Sooryanarayanan Sesha to take your leave. Have a good day!
