Wild Panthers 90 all-out lose to Oeiras by 48 runs.
A thumping win for Oeiras. Chasing 139, Wild Panthers never really got hold of the chase. Opener Azher Andani scored 28 from just 13 balls but there was no other contribution of any substance with the bat. All other batters failed to cross the 15-run mark. That is how poor the Wild Panthers' batters were in a chase that demanded at least two special knocks. Wild Panthers' batters kept throwing away their wickets as the pressure of a steep chase kept mounting on their shoulders. Needless to say, Oeiras' bowlers had a good time with the ball. Ranjit Narayan was the pick of the bowlers as he bowled a match-winning spell of 3/14. He was well supported by Jai Mandhan and Krut Patel. The two bowlers picked two wickets each.
Earlier in the day, it was a run feast! Wild Panthers won the toss and asked Oeiras to bat first. And Oeiras made the best use of batting-friendly conditions. Their opener Kuldeep Gholiya set the stage with a quickfire 36 from just 14 balls. But the star of the show for Oeiras was Conrad Greenshields. The batter hammered six sixes and five fours on his way to an unbeaten 79 from 31 deliveries. It was his third half-century of the tournament. His innings ensured that Oeiras were able to post a huge total on the scoreboard. Dikshit Patel and Azer Andani were the only wicket-taking bowlers for Wild Panthers. The bowlers and fielders were listless and Oeiras' batters made the most of the poor bowling and fielding.

9.6 Jai Mandhan to Deep Patel, length delivery on the stumps, Deep misses it completely and the stumps have been knocked out. WICKET!!
Deep Patel is the last man in!
9.5 Jai Mandhan to Parth Patel, full-toss, Parth just lifts it straight to the man at short extra-cover. WICKET!!
There is some delay! Only two more deliveries to be bowled but the match has halted for some inexplicable reason. This is bizarre. We could have completed a whole over in this period.
9.4 Jai Mandhan to Akshar Patel, full and slow, Akshar turns it to square-leg for a single
9.3 Jai Mandhan to Akshar Patel, full delivery, Akshar is unable to get it away. No run
9.2 Jai Mandhan to Akshar Patel, length delivery, Akshar inside-edges it to fine-leg where the fielder fails in his attempt to stop the ball with his foot. POOR FIELDING!!
9.1 Jai Mandhan to Akshar Patel, full-toss, Akshar gets into a tangle and doesn't offer a shot. The ball strikes the pads and no run is awarded even though the batsmen went through for a leg-bye
A wicket and seven runs off the over. Panther need 54 runs off the last 6 balls of the match. The chase has not gone the Panthers' way right from the start. This loss will surely hurt their chances to qualify for the semifinals.
