So, Malo pick up the first points in the Super Fives stage. However, the action continues to unfold. I, Darpan Tikiya, would be joined by Bidipto Dutta for the next match. From here, say goodbye to Soumarya Dutta for now.
The bowlers have indeed done their job for Malo here in the opening match of the Super Fives stage of ECS Portugal 2024. It seemed at the innings break that Malo were about 15-20 runs short. However, the effort from the bowlers has more than made up for it.
Gamblers got off to a decent start with Kuldeep Gholiya playing a nice cameo of 19 (14) up top. It was the spell bowled by Mian Shahid which helped to pull things back. He gave away only 14 runs and picked up 3 vital wickets to break the back of the batting.
Albeit, the Gamblers SC still kept on fighting. Amandeep Khokhar hit 2 fours and 2 sixes to bring them back in the hunt. But then, Syed Maisam bowled a brilliant 9th over to peg them back again. Adnan Gondal di the rest with his full and fast bowling in the last over.

Muhammad Adnan Gondal
3/20
9.6 Adnan Gondal to Mandeep Saini, RUN OUT!!! It's all over for the Gamblers and Malo have clinched this game. It was full and around middle stump. Saini hit it down to mid off and tried to take two runs which resulted in the run out. Gamblers SC end up with 101/8 in 10 overs.
Nishant Verma run out (Asim Sarwar/Adnan Gondal) 1 (1b, 0x4, 0x6)
9.5 Adnan Gondal to Mandeep Saini, SIXXX!! Brings up the 100! It was on length and around off. Saini got under the ball and smashed it over mid off for a MAXIMO.
9.4 Adnan Gondal to Nishant Verma, bowls the hattrick ball right into the block hole outside off. Verma jams it out to cover for a single.
Two in two! Adnan Gondal is on a hat-trick. Can the new batter Nishant Verma, LHB, keep him away?
9.3 Adnan Gondal to Nitin Kamboj, TWO IN TWO! Gondal is on a hattrick! It was full and straight and on middle stump again. Kamboj slogged across the line and lost his shape as well as his stumps. Nitin Kamboj b Adnan Gondal 0 (1b, 0x4, 0x6)
With 24 runs required off 4 balls, in walks Nitin Kamboj, LHB.
That yorker was too hot to handle for poor Jai Prakash who was facing his first legal ball in this innings.
9.2 Adnan Gondal to Jai Prakash, BOWLED HIM! It was full and straight from Gondal and right at the base of middle stump. Prakash had a wild slog at it and he missed the line of the ball as it crashed into the stumps.
Jai Parkash b Adnan Gondal 0 (1b, 0x4, 0x6)
9.1 Adnan Gondal to Mandeep Saini, pitched up and around off stump. Saini slaps it on the up and it goes straight to point. Will be a single.
Can Adnan Gondal [1-0-12-1] keep the uncertainties away for Malo? He bowls the last over.
They say, "Cricket is a game of glorious uncertainties.". It would indeed be glorious if Gamblers SC can get the 25 runs needed in the last over.

Syed Maisam
1/20
8.6 Syed Maisam to Mandeep Saini, full and around the middle and leg stump line. Saini works it away into the on side for a single.
8.5 Syed Maisam to Mandeep Saini, full and wide outside off stump. Mandeep swings and he misses it.
8.4 Syed Maisam to Mandeep Saini, FOURR!! Poor fielding! It was full and outside off stump. Saini smashed it to long off and the fielder there made a meal of it.
8.4 Syed Maisam to Jai Praksh, WIDE!! Down the leg side and it will be an extra run.
That brings Jai Prakash, RHB, to the crease.
The pendulum has swung back into the favour of Malo again. Khokhar played a good little hand here though.
8.3 Syed Maisam to Amandeep Khokhar, GONEEEE!! It was full and around off stump. Khokhar tries to go on the up over long off but he mistimes it and gets caught at the fence by the fielder placed there. The sixth one goes down for the Gamblers. Amandeep Khokhar c Asim Sarwar b Syed Maisam 23 (12b, 2x4, 2x6)
