Much like their opponents VCC, they too started off well with the chase, getting 29 runs in the 3 over powerplay. Soon after the powerplay, wickets kept tumbling for UCC as they failed to hold onto their innings and get the runs on the board. Only Abhimanyu Singh stood tall than the others in the batting contingent scoring 33 runs, but that was not enough as in the end they were bowled out for a paltry 75 runs in 9.2 overs
UCC bowlers put up a good bowling show in tandem. Haris Hassan dented them severely as he picked up 3 wickets and Ritik Tomar and Siddharth Goud returned with 2 wickets each. They were even clinical in the field and took the catches well in the infield and the outfield.

9.2 Kamak Bhinder to Santhosh Bemmireddy, full-length ball outside off, the batsman has holed it straight to the fielder at deep covers. That's the end of the innings! UCC have been bowled out for 75 and they lose by 29 runs!
9.2 Kamak Bhinder to Santhosh Bemmireddy, sprays with wide outside off and it's called wide!
9.1 Kamak Bhinder to Santhosh Bemmireddy, full-length ball outside off, tries to drive it but gets bottom edge.
Dreams of chasing down the target has diminished for UCC. They have very well fallen short of the target and had failed to construct an innings when the wickets fell. They are on 74/9 after 9 overs and need an improbable 31 runs in 6 balls
8.6 Ritik Tomar to Santhosh Bemireddy, short and wide outside off, cuts it to backward point and takes a single.
8.5 Ritik Tomar to Naveen Purandhar, banged in short and Naveen pulls it straight to the fielder at deep square leg.
8.4 Ritik Tomar to Arpan Shukla, full-length ball on middle and leg, tucks it to square leg and takes a single.
8.3 Ritik Tomar to Naveen Purandhar, full-length ball, drives it to offside but will get only a single.
8.2 Ritik Tomar to Arpan Shukla, full-length ball outside off, taps it to backward point and takes a single.

We have a technical difficulty with the stream! We will be back soon with the live coverage!
7.4 Haris Hassan to Abhimanyu Singh, full toss outside off, the batsman smashes it straight to the fielder at covers. Big wicket here for VCC!
7.3 Haris Hassan to Abhimanyu Singh, full-length outside off, drives it to the cover fielder who fails to hold onto it and it has raced away to the boundary. Fielder misses there and the ball trickles on the field to reach the boundary ropes for a four
7.2 Haris Hassan to Abhimanyu Singh, banged in short and the batsman has pulled it elegantly to backward square leg boundary. Times the pull like gold here and the ball travels to the ropes for a boundary. Much needed boundary for UCC
7.1 Haris Hassan to Naveen Purandhar, slower full length outside off, drives it to the fielder at covers. One run.
UCC are on 60/5 after 7 overs. The over fetched them 13 runs and certainly has eased the pressure for them. They will need big hits from here on as they need 45 runs in 18 balls
6.6 Nirmal Kumar to Naveen Purandhar, low full-length ball, drives back to the bowler who fumbles to hold onto it and they take an easy single.
6.5 Nirmal Kumar to Naveen Purandhar, slow full-length ball, clips it to mid-wicket and sets off for two runs.
6.4 Nirmal Kumar to Abhimanyu Singh, short and wide outside off, cuts it to backward point and takes a single.
