Spain won by 7 wickets Muhammad Babar 37 (16) | Rickie Gill 28 (16) Janitha Fernando 2-14(2) | Hassan Ali 3-6 (1.3)
Romania have to do a lot of things better to compete against this Spanish team and that was evident from this match. They lost wicket cheaply inside the powerplay and got reduced to 7-5. The game was almost lost at that point but they somehow managed to get past 60, all thanks to Gill's entertaining cameo.
In reply, it's just a matter of how many overs that this destructive batter order takes to chase this score and they won the match comprehensively without breaking any sweat in 5.3 overs. They experimented a few things with the bat and sent Snehith Reddy to open the batting but he fell cheaply. The big guns didn't come out to bat but Muhammad Babar was in an attacking mode right from the word go. He was fortunate to be at the crease as the Romanian fielders gave them the second chance, and he made them pay eventually
5.4 Luca Petre to Sebastian Hughes Pinan, FOUR! Spain outclass Romania by 7 wickets. Full toss outside off, Pinan opens the blade and gets this past the fielder at short third to finish things in style
