Portugal beat Romania by 6 wickets and 16 balls to spare
What we all expected to pan out, did happen- which was Portugal triumphing over Romania, like they did yesterday, but it wasn't as simple, with the Romanian bowlers putting on a good fight with the ball!
In all fairness, there was absolutely no contribution from the top and even to some extent the middle order from Portugal's point of view, but the way Najam Shahzad counter attacked and stole the game from them in the span of just 2 overs, shows how destructive a better he can be!
Shahzad, who played some shots of the greatest caliber, took Janitha Fernando, who had been exceptionally good over the past two games, to task. It appears it backfired badly for Romania, as he had held crucial to their prospects of winning.
Overall, it was a good game of cricket permeated by ups and downs in both halves of the game and the better team took the label of victory along with them, which was Portugal today!
7.2 Mahesh Prasanna to Najam Shahzad, SIX! Game, set and match! Too short outside the off stump and Shahzad picks the bones out of it as he rocks back to club a pull over mid-wicket. Such a fitting end to this contest and it was only fair that Shahzad had the final say in it. Portugal win their third game of the ECI Spain 2023 by six wickets!
7.1 Mahesh Prasanna to Francoise Stoman, back of a length delivery outside the off stump. Stoman stands tall to flat-bat it down the ground to long off for one
WHAT AN OVER! NAJAM SHAHZAD YOU BEAUTY! He definitely was in a hurry! Some serious power hitting on display here! A true captain's knock! Only 3 needed now, with 3 overs to spare! Truly phenomenal!

6.6 Janitha Fernando to Najam Shahzad, FOUR! 30 runs off the over! Throws the kitchen sink at this full one outside the off stump and swings wildly across the line. The leading edge flies over the third man region en route to the fence
6.5 Janitha Fernando to Najam Shahzad, DROPPED! AND AN OVERTHROW! Sums up Romania's misery! Full outside the off stump from around the wicket. Shahzad shanks it wildly into the sky off the leading edge before cover point runs in and makes a mess of it. He has a shy at the stumps too but it goes awfully wrong as the batters return for the second
6.4 Janitha Fernando to Najam Shahzad, MAKE THAT FOUR ON THE BOUNCE! Another slot delivery around the off stump. Shahzad brings out another slog sweep and clobbers it over mid-wicket for another six. Is he going for six in six here?
6.3 Janitha Fernando to Najam Shahzad, THREE IN A ROW! This is really poor bowling from Janitha as he dishes out a pie in the slot at the stumps. Shahzad clears his front leg and pumps it effortlessly over the mid-wicket fence for six
6.2 Janitha Fernando to Najam Shahzad, SIX MORE! He's in a hurry now! Full outside the off stump and he doesn't really middle it as he sits on one knee and unleashes a slog in front of square. Still gets enough on it to launch it high and long over the mid-wicket fence
6.1 Janitha Fernando to Najam Shahzad, SIX MORE! Shahzad is making Romania pay here! In the arc outside the off stump and he sits on one knee to launch it through the line of it. He cannons it a mile over long off for half-a-dozen
Left arm pacer, Janitha Fernando returns to conclude his spell
A decent over from Chamlka Fernando, but I don't see why as a spinner there's a need for you to drop it short or at a flatter trajectory, that too with ample time for the batter to play across the line. He should try and float it up, but a little more air speed and revolutions to catch the leading edge at cover point, instead of taking the gamble of bowling it short and asking the batter to miscue it

5.6 Chamalka Fernando to Najam Shahzad, fraction short outside the off stump. Shahzad fences a cut square of the wicket before retaining strike
5.5 Chamalka Fernando to Najam Shahzad, SIX! That's coming towards Madrid! Drops it short at the stumps and Shahzad picks the bones out of it. Rocks back and pummels it way back over mid-wicket as it nearly goes out of the ground
5.4 Chamalka Fernando to Najam Shahzad, FOUR! Too straight as he pulls his length back on middle and leg stump. Shahzad swivels and helps it behind square on the leg-side before it races away for four while beating the boundary rider owing to the awkward bounce on it
5.3 Chamalka Fernando to Najam Shahzad, very full outside the off stump. Shahzad shovels it to mid-off, no run
5.2 Chamalka Fernando to Francoise Stoman, tossed up full outside the off stump. Stoman opens the face and drives the ball to sweeper cover for one
