Pleven 65 all out in 9.3 overs Apoorv Mishra 15(9)| Vishal Kumar 4/10 Rifat Hossain 9(13) | Agagyul Ahmadzai 2/8
This has been a really disappointing loss for the Pleven side and they've collapsed under pressure here! They started off in fine fashion getting to over 30 in the powerplay. However, they lost their way from there onwards and kept loosing wickets at regular intervals. The middle and lower middle order couldn't offer much of a resistance and folded up in no time.
The bowlers did a great job for the Barbarians! Vishal Kumar starred with the ball for them as he picked up four wickets. The rest of the bowlers chipped in with a couple of wickets each while skipper Nikolov kept things under check and gave away just 11 runs from his two overs.
Overall, the Barbarians will be thrilled with this game and they've opened their account in some style! The Pleven though will be disappointed as it's their fourth successive loss and they will have to get back to the drawing board and get their act together!
9.3 Mohammad Fayyaz to Arun Joy, ALL-OUT! Full on the stumps, Arun backs away and looks to push it to the off-side but he misses it as the stumps are re-arranged! So, Barbarian CC win by 33 runs!
9.2 Mohammad Fayyaz to Arun Joy, full outside-off, Arun tries to drive through the covers but he misses it
9.1 Mohammad Fayyaz to Arun Joy, FOUR! Full on the stumps, Arun backs away and lifts it over cover for a boundary. The fielder back-tracked and picked up the ball but he then stepped over the fence!
The Barbarians are almost there and this has been a really dramatic collapse for the Pleven! They've almost surrendered in the face of adversity.
