Commentary

Right then, a fantastic contest has come to an end, just like all good things do, and with this being the final game of the day, it has been another exciting day in the European Cricket Series and the European Cricket Championship. A total of 7 games today, just like every other day, and we will be back tomorrow for more nail biting action! I hope you enjoyed the action, as much as we did, bringing it you. On behalf of my colleague Dwijesh, it will be me, Ankit Sharma, taking bidding you a goodnight! Please take care and stay safe!

Nicosia Fighters beat Nicosia Tigers by 2 runs

WOW! What a game this has been! A see saw of a game, with both teams pulling the match their way in a matter of balls, but after all, we can have only one winner, and it is the Nicosia Fighters who have done the unthinkable! Restrict a score below 100, against the mighty Tigers!

The Tigers looked comfortable in the first couple of overs, with the opening duo of Roman Mazumder and Faysal Mia going about things their usual way. The former notched up a six in the second over, and made his intentions clear, but what was to follow, he himself must have not thought. In the third over, both were dismissed on consecutive deliveries. Faysal, thanks to a major mix up running between the wickets, and Roman, to a miscued shot. This was when the Fighters realized they have a real chance at victory, and they did everything they could to keep their hunt alive.

While Sakhawat Hossain stayed till the very end, fighting a lone battle for a while, till Anowar Hossain came out. The middle order, crumpled like dominoes, one after the other, and in no time, the Tigers were 6 down, with a good chunk of runs still to be scored. A batting unit of this calibre, failing to take responsibility and losing wickets in abundance is a big question mark for them, when under pressure.

The two Hossain's, Anowar and Sakhawat gave a late surge in runs and boundaries, to keep the Tigers in the hunt, but they were still a couple of runs short, and could not see their team through. While Sakhawat took his time to pick up boundaries, trying to build up a partnership with multiple partners, Anowar went off straight away, and scored in excess of a 175 strike rate. A boundary here and there, or even a couple of runs here and there would have turned the game around, and Tigers will have to address this issue before their next game.

But all credits to the Fighters' bowlers who have done a brilliant job, with the odds stacked against the, to come out and put up such a display. Not only picking wickets continuously, but restricting the opposition from scoring runs. While qualifying might look next to impossible for them, they can go home with their heads held high, after such a stellar performance. Their bowlers were tested during the chase, but they won every battle out there today, and it must be a surreal feeling for the Nicosia Fighters, winning this one.

NICOSIA FIGHTERS HAVE DONE IT! They register a win against all odds, and have held their nerves, to win this game by just 2 runs! Talk about drama! A fantastic game, this, so evenly poised right till the final delivery, but the Fighters have come out on top, and they register a heroi win.

9.6 Monirul Islam to Anowar Hossain, THE FIGHTERS WIN! A length ball bowled on middle and leg, Hossain fails to get bat on ball as he is struck high on the pads. An upset win for the Fighters as they beat the Tigers by 2 runs!

A crucial dive from Anowar Hossain at the strikers end to make it back home, and gain two runs. FINAL BALL, FOUR NEEDED!

9.5 Monirul Islam to Anowar Hossain, a full ball bowled outside off, Hossain lifts it towards the mid-off region for a couple of runs here!

Sakhawat misses his shot, and is ball watching behind his stumps, while Anowar sprints to the other end for a single. Sakhawat is late to grasp what's happening around him, and in that much time the keeper throws the ball to the bowler who knocks the bails off at the non striker's end. 6 runs needed off 2 balls!

9.4 Monirul Islam to Sakhawat Hossain, RUN-OUT! A slower ball bowled wide and full outside off, Hossain fails to get bat on ball but ends up sacrificing his wicket for Anowar!

A single and a brace to follow that boundary. Tigers still very much in the game. Every run counts at this moment, and every dot ball will too! 6 runs needed from 3 balls!

9.3 Monirul Islam to Sakhawat Hossain, a full ball bowled on the stumps, Hossain lifts it over the bowler's head for a couple of runs although the keeper should have ran Sakhawat out on that occasion!

9.2 Monirul Islam to Anowar Hossain, a back of a length delivery bowled on middle and leg, Hossain pulls it into the leg-side for a single

A FOUR! Perfect start to the over. It's not a intentional boundary down to fine leg, but the Tigers will take them in any way they come. 9 runs needed now!

9.1 Monirul Islam to Anowar Hossain, FOUR! A length ball bowled outside off, Anowar edges it past the stumps and the keeper towards fine-leg for a boundary! Just the start the Tigers wanted!

This has been a fantastic over for the Tigers, for a change. A six early in the over, by Anowar to set the ball rolling, and then Sakhawat capitalizing on his chances, and picking 10 of the last two balls. Ohh the nerves of everyone on the pitch right now! Tigers need 13 from 6 balls!

8.6 Abul Khayer to Sakhawat Hossain, SIX! GAME-ON! A full ball bowled on middle and off, Sakhawat clears his front foot and smacks it over the deep square leg region for a much-needed maximum!

8.5 Abul Khayer to Sakhawat Hossain, FOUR! A length ball bowled outside off, Sakhawat blasts it through the fielder at midwicket for a boundary!

8.4 Abul Khayer to Anowar Hossain, a length ball bowled on middle and off, Hossain miscues it to the mid-on region for a single

8.3 Abul Khayer to Anowar Hossain, DOT BALL! A very full ball bowled outside off, which Hossain cannot reach out to!
