Commentary

That's all we've got for you from this match as my partner, Sooryanarayanan and I, Sudheer are signing off at the moment but do stay tuned to Sportskeeda for more updates and match information coming your way from around the world. Cheers and have fun!

Nicosia Fighters have managed to cross the line inside 10 overs as they chased down the target of 95 with just 1 ball to spare. They made things difficult for themselves in the final few balls before Saikat Al Amin came in and finished it with a boundary.

Abdullah Al Tasmin of Nicosia Fighters batters helped his team get off to a flier inside the powerplay but he was dismissed early on in the innnings. They were just ambling along in the middle with Noori Chowdhury and Parvez Miah scoring couple of boundaries each while they were in the middle as the required rate kept increasing. They maintained their cool and played a composed innings, Parvez Miah in particular. Naeem Khan walked in at number 4 and turned it on for his team with his 8 ball 18 that had two big sixes while Saikat Al Amin finished it off in the end.

Cyprus Eagles started off well with the ball as they kept the scoring rate under check in the first half of the innings. All the bowlers have maintained discipline while they were asked to bowl. One bad over has really turned it around against them and from there on it was difficult for them to come back into the game as the required rate came under run a ball. Manikanta Ranimekala and Srinivas Angarekkala were the wicket taker for the team but they would be disappointed with the result in the end.

This win gives Nicosia Fighters their 4th victory and they have chance to move up the ladder in the points table with games in their hand. Cyprus Eagles are 3rd on the points table though they lost this game but need to pull their socks up in the coming game to stay at the same position.

That's the end of the match as Saikal Al Amin finishes it off for his team with a boundary. They made a hash of this chase in the final few balls when it looked like they will make it easy for themselves. Had the match not gone Fighters way, they have themselves to blame in the final few balls and luckily they ended up on the right side at the end of the match.

9.5 Sekhar Muttamsetti to Saikat Al Amin, FOUR! SAIKAT SEALS IT IN STYLE! Length delivery around off and he steps down the track to whip it along the ground through the extra cover region as he comfortably beats the fielder to send the ball racing to the boundary. There were some nervous and controversial moments towards the end but eventually, Nicosia XI Fighters beat Cyprus Eagles CTL by 4 wickets and a delivery to spare!

9.4 Sekhar Muttamsetti to Saikat Al Amin, DOT BALL! PRICELESS! Back of a length delivery slanting across the batter well outside off, Saikat is way too late on his attempt to slash it through the off-side as the ball zips over to the keeper.

2 runs needed from 3 balls. What's gonna Sekhar Muttamsetti do to make it happen for his team?

9.3 Sekhar Muttamsetti to Ramjan Hossain, RUN OUT! IS THERE A TWIST IN THE TALE? Full and slanting across the batter outside off, Hossain has swing in vain but Rahman races across to steal a bye. He fails to reach the other end on time though as the keeper nails down the stumps with an underarm throw! Now then...

9.2 Sekhar Muttamsetti to Munna Rahman, OH DEAR! NASTY BLOW! Sends down a bouncer on middle and leg, Munna swivels into a pull but is pinged on the side of the head before he manages to jog across to the other end for a leg bye as the ball flies into the off-side. He wasn't wearing a helmet for some reason and the physio comes out to check up on him!

9.1 Sekhar Muttamsetti to Munna Rahman, OOH! Short of a length and zipping across the batter just outside off, Rahman stands his ground to glide it over third man but he fails to ride the extra bounce on this one.

Sekhar Muttamsetti to bowl the final over of the match.

3 runs needed from 6 balls and Fighters should be backing themselves to chase this down but you never know untill its over. It's that sort of game, this Cricket.

8.6 Manikanta Ranimekala to Kamran Ahmad, OUT! KAMRAN HOLES OUT! Good length delivery outside off, Kamran backs away and thumps it high into the sky. No timing whatsoever as the ball drops safely into the hands of cover.

8.6 Manikanta Ranimekala to Kamran Ahmad, WIDE! Back of a length delivery angled well across the batter outside off, Kamran shuffles across and has a punch at it only for the ball to go through with the angle. Manikanta has to reload.

8.5 Manikanta Ranimekala to Kamran Ahmad, full and slanting across the batter outside off, Kamran has a swing at that but he fails to make contact.

That was a school bouy stuff from the two batters. Ball was yet to be called dead and the batters have made a hash of it with their silly error. In the end, Naeem Khan is declared out and rightly so.

Another incident of Muralitharan and Kumara Sangakkara was also of similar kind and Muralitharan was declared run out by the Umpires.

8.4 Manikanta Ranimekala to Munna Rahman, DRAMA! What's going on here? There is an appeal for a run out and the umpires converge. Very full and slanting across the batter on off, Rahman makes room to squeeze it behind point for a single and then here's what happens - the throw comes to the keeper just as Naeem grounds his bat and he turns to have a mid-pitch meeting with his partner. The keeper flicks the bails off though before throwing the ball to the bowler who does the same at his end as both batters meet halfway down the pitch. They have made the appeal for a run out and the umpires converge.

Guess what? Naeem has been given run out! Would you believe it! This is as controversial a moment as it can get! Memories of the Ian Bell (non)run out from Trent Bridge 2011 anyone?

8.3 Manikanta Ranimekala to Munna Rahman, FOUR! EASY PICKINGS! Length delivery on the pads, Rahman clips it from his crease through fine leg and picks out the boundary. The Fighters are nearly there now!

8.2 Manikanta Ranimekala to Munna Rahman, length delivery slanted across the batter outside off, Rahman swings hard but fails to connect.

8.1 Manikanta Ranimekala to Naeem Khan, full-ish delivery just around off, Naeem is pushed back in his crease as he keeps it out towards mid-off for a single.

Just 11 runs required from 12 balls as Naeem Khan has turned it on for the Fighters. 18 runs came off that over and the match has turned on it head in favour of Fighters.
