Key Points

The teams will rely on their batting prowess to deliver the goods, as has been seen, the pitch is a belter with shorter off-side boundaries. Anything above the 100 mark or in the '90s is a tough target to chase.

Venue Details and Pitch Report

Match Timings: 08 Jul, 01:30 PM IST

Match Venue: ,

Umpires:

Pitch Report: The pacers have had little to no offer from this surface, and therefore another high-scoring encounter is on the cards. As seen on the first two days of the tournamnet, the Marsta strip is a batsmen's delight. Expect the teams to win the toss to bat first and slam a score around 100. The outfield gets progressively fast which will help the strokemaking in this game.

Weather Prediction: It will be a typical Sweden weather as the clouds will be present all around the day. Couple of rain-showers have been predicted. However, the matches will not be washed away or curtailed.

Expert Comment

Abhinav Singh

Another exciting day of the tournament and we have two teams with two contrasting fortunes. DGC has won both their encounters played whereas VCC have lost the solitary game they have played, Both the teams will be eyeing that crucial two points to move up in the points ladder.

Commentary

So, this was me, Shrey Gupta along with my colleague, Abhinav Singh bringing you the live-action of the European Cricket League 2020 Match 11 which was played between Varmdo CC and Djurgardens IF Cricketforening. The international cricket is all set to make a return at The Rose Bowl, Southampton. So stay tuned to Sportskeeda as the historic test match between England and West Indies will kick start at 3:30 pm IST.

Relief for Varmdo CC in some form!
DIC had a stranglehold on the match throughout the innings! Could have ended up winning it, and topping the table more comprehensively! But, destiny had some other plans for them! Still, with the points being split between the two teams, DIC is now the table-toppers and almost through to the knock-out stages!

Unfortunately, the match has been called off!

After winning the toss and batting first, Varmdo Cc batting unit looked completely disarrayed! They were in the soup right in the first over with two wickets down and never found any resurgence. None of their batsman except Javed Ahmadzai even got double digits score! Both the boundaries which were the only ones in their innings were scored by Ahmadzai! So, for Varmdo Cc, only rain can save them from a humiliating defeat!
On the other hand, DIC bowlers looked in total control with respect to their line and length. Their fielders took some brilliant catches and cashed in on every opportunity that was thrown to them. They have done well to restrict VAR on a mere score of 32 runs in 7 overs!

Innings Break! VAR finshes on 32/8 after 7 overs!

Some signs of clear sky and DIC would love that!

It's drizzling heavily now, and the umpires decide to walk off! Rain interruption!

6.6 Prashant Shukla to F Khan, fulltoss and played straight to the bowler. DOT ball

6.5 Prashant Shukla to F Khan, bowls it towards leg and both the batsman and the keeper miss it. Batsmen run two but the umpire calls a short run

6.4 Prashant Shukla to Khalid, OUT! The third googly of the over and the persistence of the bowler pays off, Khalid is castled and the bowler has the last laugh. Tried cutting the ball but failed to judge the pace of it! The ball crashes into the stump!

6.3 Prashant Shukla to Khalid, another googly and the batsman doesn't have any answer to it

6.2 Prashant Shukla to N Sanaugal, short ball, batsman hits it to the long for a single

6.1 Prashant Shukla to N Sanaugal, bowls a googly, the batsman just defends it. Shukla's googly is bowled from a short trajectory.

2 runs and 2 wickets in this one! VAR is 30-7 after 6 overs!

5.6 S Choudhary to K Aziz, OUT! pitched on short of good length, Aziz tried slicing it but only ends up getting it to the point fielder only who takes an easy catch. Got no connection on this one, and the skipper has to depart!

5.5 S Choudhary to K Aziz, short of length and the ball moves away. Missed by Aziz

5.4 S Choudhary to I Rahman, OUT! length ball, the southpaw advances down the pitch, makes some room and tries to muscle it, but ends up lobbing it. The long on fielder runs a good 30 yards and takes a well-judged catch, diving forward! EXCELLENT!

5.3 S Choudhary to K Aziz, straighter one on the off stump and the batsman just manages to drive it to mid-off for a solitary run.

5.2 S Choudhary to K Aziz, misses the ball bowled on short of good length

5.1 Ankit Dubey to I Rahman, bowls straight, the batsman plays it to leg side for a single
