That brings us to the end of our coverage of the penultimate league game of the 2023 US Masters T10. We have our top four, now it remains to be seen which of the two teams get two shots at a place in the final. The last league stage game is set to start in a few minutes. Click here to follow our coverage of the same! This is Rajarshi, signing off on behalf of my mate and co-commentator Maanas. See you soon!

Ben Dunk, Texas Chargers captain: We've been building momentum and we've put on a complete performance today. Really happy for the guys, and excited to play on the weekend. It's been a bit frustrating for me, because I think I've hit the ball pretty well, but I guess that's the game. All the guys contributed - the Colonel and Darren Stevens played really well towards the end, and with the ball, the guys were awesome. 

Match summary:

Texas Chargers win by 22 runs

Ben Dunk 53(22) | Imran Khan jnr 4/2 (2)
Hammad Azam 26(7) | Nasir Hossain 2/17 (2)

The Riders' lower-order had a lot of fun towards the latter stages, particularly Harmeet Singh - whose stay in the middle gave a glimmer of hope to the Riders. But they were always up against it, particularly with the Chargers picking up wickets in quick succession. They saw their top and middle-order being blown away by an incredible first over from Imran Khan in just the 2nd over of the run-chase, and they were chasing the game since then itself.

Robin Uthappa looked to go for it right from ball one, but the Riders skipper holed out to deep point perfectly in doing so. A remarkable triple-wicket maiden over followed from Imran Khan, one that saw him nip the ball off the deck and get the batters to hole out one by one. Lendl Simmons, joined by former Pakistan international Hammad Azam, looked to put up a fight. While they were able to make the most of the floating powerplay, both batters fell soon after in quick succession.

With wickets falling at regular intervals, the Riders, up against an uphill task in the first place, were still hopeful with Harmeet Singh out there. The left-hander kept finding and clearing the ropes, but once he holed out early in the 8th over, the game was done and dusted. Elias Sunny had some fun with the bat, but the Chargers went on to close the game out without fuss.

9.6 Ehsan Adil to Kamrul Islam, a low full toss outside off, Islam drives it towards deep extra cover for a single. 

9.5 Ehsan Adil to Elias Sunny, full and on the middle stump line, Sunny lets out a grunt as he cannot get it off the middle of the bat. The bowler looks to stop it but can only get fingertips on it as the ball runs down to long on for a single. 

9.4 Ehsan Adil to Elias Sunny, short and outside off, Sunny looks to pull it away but fails to make any connection. 

9.4 Ehsan Adil to Elias Sunny, WIDE! Length ball outside off, sprayed past the tramline and it'll be a wide. 

9.3 Ehsan Adil to Elias Sunny, length ball outside off, Sunny charges down the track and has a massive swing across the line but fails to make any connection. 

9.2 Ehsan Adil to Elias Sunny, SIX! LAUNCHED! A low full toss on the leg stump line, Sunny shuffles across and absolutely muscles it over the long on region with a lovely swing of the bat for a maximum! 

9.2 Ehsan Adil to Elias Sunny, WIDE! Length ball outside off, sprayed past the tramline and it'll be a wide. 

9.1 Ehsan Adil to Kamrul Islam, a low full toss on the middle stump line, Islam drives it down to long on for a single. 

Final over coming up. The Texas Chargers have all but booked their place in the knockouts, can they bowl the Riders out before the 10 overs?

8.6 Thisara Perera to Elias Sunny, SIX! LAUNCHED! A low full toss on the body, Sunny hangs back and picks it up off his pads to deposit it over the mid-wicket fence! That's massive! 

8.5 Thisara Perera to Kamrul Islam, length ball on the fourth stump line, Islam slaps that down to long on for a single. 

8.4 Thisara Perera to Kamrul Islam, slower length ball outside off, Islam throws his hands at it but fails to make any connection. 

8.3 Thisara Perera to Elias Sunny, short and on the body, Sunny looks to glance but he misses. The ball deflects off his thigh pad into the fine leg region for a single.
