ACB vs ZIN

Thanks a lot for joining us - Rajarshi Das and Mohul Bhowmick - for this exciting game of cricket between Zinitas and ACCB. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did bringing it to you. Until next time, ciao!

ACCB beat Zinitis by 43 runs!

Abdul Asif 77* (29) | Saeed Ullah 3-13
Wimukthi Madhushan 60 (23) | Rajith Puthen 2-20

Zinitis tried their best to chase this total down but could not quite do so in the end. The bowlers of ACCB were on top of their game throughout and did not give them any looseners at all. 

While it did seem at one point that they will be able to run their opponents close, Zinitis started losing wickets at regular intervals, and this is what put the full stop to their chase. 

ACCB will be extremely pleased with this win, coming as it does on the back of a disappointing defeat in the hands of Lankan Lions earlier in the day. 

Zinitis, however, will want to take a long, hard look at the mirror and try to ensure that they improve themselves ahead of their next match in this tournament and hope to pick up as many points as possible.

9.6 Parveen Kumar to Pasindu Vindula, absolute chaos to end the game! Full, outside off, Vindula looks to slash this over long off, miscues it. Vindula was late to set off for the second, but the throw was at the wrong end, and Roshan made his ground there. Zinitis claim a bonus point, but ACCB will take the game by 43 runs!

9.5 Parveen Kumar to Ishara Perera, ANOTHER RUN OUT! Back of a length around off, Ishara looks to dab at it, is beaten. The batters attempt a bye as the keeper rolls it at the stumps, misses. The back-up fielder has a go at the bowler's, misses as well. Buddika calls Ishara for a second, Ishara is far too late, and gives up as the keeper gathers, runs back and breaks the stumps

Ishara Perera run out (Saeed Ullah/Wimukthi Madhushan) 4 (8b 0x4 0x6)

9.4 Parveen Kumar to Ishara Perera, THE RUN OUT TAKES PLACE THIS TIME! On a length around off, Ishara dabs this straight to the man behind point. Sarindu was three-quarters down the wicket this time, and there was no going back as the bowler gathered and clipped a bail off

Sarindu Perera run out (Tharindu Hettihewage/Parveen Kumar) 5 (7b 1x4 0x6)

9.1 Parveen Kumar to Ishara Perera, short on off, Ishara jabs this towards square leg. Sarindu was more than halfway down in search of a single, got no response. Sarindu dived to make his ground

Parveen Kumar will bowl the final over.

Just one over to go now. ACCB will merely want to complete the formalities now and pick up all the points from this game.

8.4 Naveen Kunta to Sarindu Perera, on a hard length outside off, Sarindu looks to dab at it, misses. The keeper attempts a cheeky stumping, misses with the underarm throw
