Commentary

That's all from us then! This is Soumarya Dutta, signing off on behalf of Bidipto Datta. See you soon.

Southern Crusaders 168/4 in 10 overs
Affy Khan 67(23) | Muhammad Ajmal 2/13
Gopal Thakur 38(14) |

Muhammad Qasim has successfully defended 7 runs from the final over and the Crusaders have pulled off what has been an absolute humdinger. The game swung like a pendulam from one end to the other and it seemed like the Crusaders had it in their pocket when they needed 7 runs from the final over, but they choked to fall short by 1 run in the end.

Affy Khan and Gopal Thakur put up an outstanding partnership where they put on a dazzling display of strokemaking and kept up a relentless onslaught of hitting. Khan picked up a well made 60 while Thakur gave him good company at the other end as he made 67 from just 23 balls.

The bowlers took some real beating for the greater part of the innings but they came back solidly in the end. Ajmal was once again unbelievably good and he is the player of the game yet again. He picked up two wickets while the other two were run outs. Muhammad Qasim also bowled a phenomenal final over where he held on to his nerves to help his side clinch this thriller.

9.6 Muhammad Qasim to Zeshan Yousaf, SWIEQI UNITED WIN A THRILLER HERE! Low full toss around off-stump. Zeshan went down the wicket and thumped it over the bowler. Long-off came around in time and stopped the boundary. After that, all that the batters could muster was a couple of runs!

9.5 Muhammad Qasim to Michael Goonetilleke, full outside off-stump. Pumped down to long-on from the back foot for a single only. 4 runs to win off the last ball!

Michael Goonetilleke, RHB, comes to the crease

9.4 Muhammad Qasim to Zeshan Yousaf, RUN OUT! Full on off-and-middle. Drilled down to wide long-on off the front foot for a boundary this time and a direct hit to the striker's end gets rid of Masih who was searching for a single!

Gulfraz Masih run out (Muhammad Ajmal) 1(3b, 0x4, 0x6)

9.3 Muhammad Qasim to Gulfraz Masih, DROPPED! Full outside off-stump. A swing through the line of the blade and it goes to the short third man fielder. But, he puts it down and gives away a single!

9.2 Muhammad Qasim to Gulfraz Masih, yet another swing over mid-on attempted and missed! Dot ball yet again!

9.1 Muhammad Qasim to Gulfraz Masih, good length ball around off-stump. A massive swing across the line and a miss! No run.

Muhammad Qasim, right arm off break, comes into the attack.

Zeeshan Yousaf! He is playing an incredible knock under pressure here and the Crusaders just need 7 runs from the final over. This has been an absolutely nerve wracking contest.

8.6 Umar Khan to Zeshan Yousaf, FOUR MORE! Attempted yorker on the pads. Zeshan gets it on the full and flicks it away to the long-leg region to the right of the fielder in the deep for a boundary!

8.5 Umar Khan to Zeshan Yousaf, Oh! Full and in the block hole just past leg-stump and through the the defense of the batter this time! Dot ball.

8.4 Umar Khan to Zeshan Yousaf, SIX RUNS YET AGAIN! Good length ball down the leg-side. Zeshan moves across and hammers it over fine-leg for a maximum!

8.3 Umar Khan to Zeshan Yousaf, SIX MORE! Full toss outside leg-stump. Pumped over deep backward square-leg's right for a maximum again!

8.2 Umar Khan to Zeshan Yousaf, FOUR RUNS! Short and wide outside off-stump. Cut over backward point off the back foot for a boundary now!

8.1 Umar Khan to Zeshan Yousaf, SIX RUNS! Length ball on off-and-middle. Lifted off the front foot from the middle of the bat over long-on for a maximum!

Michael Goonetillike, RHB, comes to the crease

Ajmal has cleaned up Affy Khan here and both the danger men are back in the hut. The Crusaders are in deep trouble now and the United are racing ahead at the moment.
