Southern Crusaders CC have won this match by 6 wickets!

What a low scoring thriller at the end of match 10 has turned out to be! Crusaders who looked set to win this match comfortably started to lose their way in the second half of the innings. The American University of Malta face a crushing defeat and fail to register their first points.

Crusaders got a great start with the bat courtesy of Micheal Goonetilleke the skipper who led the way for his side. He scored a quickfire 16 runs by hitting 3 boundaries. Micheal was unfortunately sent back into the hut by a cracking delivery from the leading wicket-taker for the tournament Shubham Patel.

Crusaders lost a couple more wickets after that in quick succession and the match were the Crusaders were cruising through to the win suddenly were shaken up. Gopal Thakur was the man who stepped up for them and stayed there, in the end, to make sure that his team manages to cross the finish line. Gopal stayed unbeaten on 20 off 16 runs in which he hit a couple of boundaries and a six.

For American University, Zoheb Malek bowled a brilliant penultimate over and created an outside chance for them to win. Gopal who was facing Zoheb was looking to go for the glory shot as only 11 runs were needed. He although managed to hit a six right on the last ball and brought the equation down to 5 from the last over.

Jitesh who bowled the final over also managed to keep things tight for his but a dropped catch where Crusaders managed to sneak in a couple. And right on the final ball of the innings where just 1 run was needed, the keeper took a shy at the stumps as the batsmen decided to make a run for it. The keeper hit them as well but it seemed like luck was not on their side as the bails did not dislodge. After a thorough analysis by the umpires Crusaders were declared the winners for the match.

9.6 Jitesh Kumar Patel to Eardley Chandiram, length ball outside the off-stump, he has a swing and a miss and they try to steal a bye. The keeper hits the base of the stumps but the bails stay intact. The bails had to come off to complete the dismissal and the batting side gets the run

9.2 Jitesh Kumar Patel to Eardley Chandiram, back of a length delivery on the off-stump, tries to force it away but mistimes it back to the bowler! 5 off 4 now, this is going down to the wire here!

9.1 Jitesh Kumar Patel to Eardley Chandiram, length ball outside the off-stump angling away, he goes for the slog but makes no connection

At the end of the 9th over SOC are 73/4. They need 5 runs from the last over!

OH, MY WORD! What a dramatic penultimate over this has turned out to be! Gopal bats throughout that over and looks to go for the glory shot in that over and kept missing it for the first 5 balls! Gopal on the final ball of the over manages to connect well and dispatched over the covers for a maximum!

8.6 Zoheb Malen to Gopal Thakur, SIX! Length delivery outside the off-stump, he has a blind swing at it and does not get the best of connections. The fielder at long-off waits under it but the ball goes just over him! Just 5 runs need here!

At the end of the 8th over SOC are 67/4. They now need 11 runs in 12 balls!

A decent comeback over from Abhishek as just 5 runs came off that over and more importantly, a wicket has been plucked by him. This is definitely building into a low scoring thriller here! SOC can still get it done in the singles here all they need to do is keep rotating the strike and win this one.
