Commentary

So that will be it from this ECS game from Malta. This is the pair of Karthik Raj and Bidipto, saying good bye. Keep following Sportskeeda!

Royal Strikers win by 8 wickets with 3 overs and 4 balls to spare!

Priyan Pushparajan 46 (19) | Kushlesh Koppaka - 2/17
Divyesh Kumar 16 (10) | Tom Thomas - 1/14

If you want to chase down a total that is somewhere in between a below average to an average score, yo do it this way - the Royal Strikers' way! They wasted no time in getting in on the act and finished the job well before time.

The loss of the early wicket had no bearing on the batting, as skipper Priyan Pushparajan scored a magnificent 46 off only 19 balls to take the game well away from the opposition. He was well supported by Kushlesh Koppaka, who remained unbeaten in the end.

They made light work of this chase and gave the Warriors no room to breathe as such, in their bowling effort.

This was a near-perfect game for the Strikers, who bowled well but batted even better, to take home two points and improve their net run furthermore!

6.2 Bristo Baby to Roshan Lorance, THAT'S THAT! Full-toss outside-off, Lorance tries to play a cover-drive but he gets an inside-edge to go past the leg-stump as the ball reaches the fence. So, Royal Strikers seal a eight-wicket victory with 22 balls to spare!

6.1 Bristo Baby to Kushlesh Koppaka, full outside-off, Koppaka drives it to long-off for a single

Bristo Baby, right-arm medium, is into the attack.

Roshan Lorance, RHB, is at the crease.

Only four more runs to get but unfortunate for Pushparajan not to see his side through to victory.

5.6 Joy Mathai to Priyan Pushparajan, PRIYAN PUSHPARAJAN DEPARTS! Full and wide of off, Priyan lofts it straight down the ground but he doesn't generate enough power. The fielder from long-off gets around and takes a fine catch!

Priyan Pushparajan c Divyesh Kumar b Joy Mathai 46 (19b, 3x4, 4x6)

5.5 Joy Mathai to Kushlesh Koppaka, length delivery outside-off, Koppaka guides it wide of short third for a single

5.4 Joy Mathai to Priyan Pushparajan, length delivery with width, Priyan walks down and slaps it to deep extra-cover. Single taken

5.3 Joy Mathai to Priyan Pushparajan, full outside-off, Priyan tries to slog across the line but he drags it onto the pad. No run

5.2 Joy Mathai to Priyan Pushparajan, WHAT A SHOT! Short of a length delivery, Priyan slaps it towards deep extra-cover and the ball lands flush on the boundary rope. So, it will be a maximum!

5.1 Joy Mathai to Kushlesh Koppaka, full outside-off, Koppaka lofts it in front of long-on. Single taken

5.1 Joy Mathai to Kushlesh Koppaka, short and outside the tramline, Koppaka can't reach it. WIDE called

Joy Mathai, right-arm medium, is into the attack.

A six-run over at this stage will do for the Strikers, after having done the early damage. Sensible batting prevailing at the moment.

4.3 Tony Louis to Priyan Pushparajan, back of a length outside-off, Priyan cracks it to short extra-cover. No run

4.2 Tony Louis to Priyan Pushparajan, length delivery outside-off, Priyan drives it to point. Oh! There is a wayward throw and the batsmen end up taking two runs!

4.1 Tony Louis to Priyan Pushparajan, length delivery on the stumps, Priyan tucks it through mid-wicket and takes a couple of runs. Superb running between the wickets!

Tony Louis, right-arm medium, is into the attack.

Priyan Pushparajan has been superb with his approach. He is single-handedly taking his team to victory, and rather quickly!
