Catalunya CC win the match by 9 runs
The chase started really well for the RSCC men as they had their openers, Datta Karan and Ishan Patel striking the ball well. Datta Karan was the aggressor in the innings while Ishan Patel stood on the backfoot and watched the show on the other end. Patel fell in the third over and Karan found an abloe ally in Manish Manwani, who complimented him well with a few four and sixes but soon fell short after a cameo knock of 29 runs. Kishtij Patel was dismissed softly and went back without disturbing the scorers. Datta Karan reached his half century but was found short of his crease in a controversial run out. In the end, Numan Ali hit a few boundaries and brought down the deficit as they finished on 124/4 after 10 overs.
The Catalunya CC were aggressive in their approach with the ball. Although they gave away a few runs in the powerplay, they pulled things back in their favour and kept a check on the batsmen, not allowing to get them boundaries. Shahbaz Shoukat struck with the early wicket of Ishan Patel. Yasir Ali was the pick of the bowlers as he struck twice, with the wicket of well settled Manwani and Kisthij Patel. Kudos to the fielding effort of the CTC fielding unit as they did not allow the boundaries to sneak past them and also accounted fo rthe run out of the dangerous looking Datta Karan which helped them seal the deal. All in all, it was a complete team performance to help them win today's match
