So, we come to the end of this ECS Cyprus, 2023 fixture at the Ypsonas Cricket Ground but stay with us by switching tabs as the next match gets underway in just about 15-20 minutes from now. This is the pair of Mohul and Bidipto saying good bye. Keep following Sportskeeda!
Everest win by 7 wickets with 2 overs and 2 balls to spare!
Arjun Shahi 37 (23) | Bimal Ranabhat - 2/9 (2) Sohail Ahmed 40 (26) and 2/18 (2)
The very first over of the innings set the tone for Everest! 20 runs came off it and the body language of Limassol Qalandars suggested that they were not quite up for the defence.
Pretty much every over had a boundary in it and there were in total, 15 extras given away! The intent from the Everest batters to get on with things and not leave it late was there to be seen right from the first ball.
With this victory, Everest get their fourth straight win and move to 8 points, overtaking Limassol Qalandars who have another match coming up today in just a few minutes from now.

7.5 Mughees Fiaz to Shyam Pandit, WIDE down the legside! EVEREST WIN THIS GAME! Pandit lets the ball go through to the keeper, and that will be that. What a turnaround this has been for Everest.
7.4 Mughees Fiaz to Shyam Pandit, floated on off and middle, comes back in. Pandit tries to play the helicopter shot but does not connect well.
7.3 Mughees Fiaz to Shyam Pandit, tossed up on off and middle. Pandit manages to merely pat it back to the bowler.
7.3 Mughees Fiaz to Sahil Akthar, WIDE down the legside! The keeper cannot collect it either and a run is taken.
7.2 Mughees Fiaz to Sahil Akthar, full and wide outside off. Akthar tries to run it down but cannot connect.
7.1 Mughees Fiaz to Sahil Akthar, FOUR! Fulltoss on off and middle. Akthar pulls it towards long on, where the fielder misfields it and allows it to past the fence for a boundary!
Mughees Fiaz, right-arm off-spin, is into the attack.
Just seven more runs to get now for Everest! This should be their fourth straight win and they quicker they get the job done, the better their net run rate gets.
