That will be all from the first match of the day here in Zagreb. Do switch tabs and check out the ODI World Cup match going on between Australia and the Netherlands. This is Bidipto taking your leave. Keep following Sportskeeda!
Zagreb Chiefs beat Sir Oliver Split by 7 runs!
Muhammad Burhan 36* (24) | Prabakaran Anbazhagan - 2/11 (2) Sam Houghton 36* (26) | Josip Jukic - 2/8 (2)
This was an interesting run chase that eventually did not go the way of Sir Oliver Split. But Zagreb Chiefs were pushing the timer big time and giving away runs in extras in plenty!
Sam Houghton made a spirited 36 not out but could not quite get the support from the other end.
With the ball, Prabakaran Anbazhagan and Muhammad Burhan bowled economically to make sure that the asking continues to be out of hand for the batting side.
So, Sir Oliver Split keep waiting here for their first win but the very first game of the tournament for Zagreb Chiefs result in a victory!
