Commentary

Thanks a lot for joining us- Mohul Bhowmick and Rudransh Khurana- for this exciting last-over finish in the ECS. We hope you enjoyed it thoroughly. Until next time, adios!
Koln Challengers beat Koln CC by 5 runs!

Rohit Narayanan 76* (27) | Manav Panwar 1-13
Akshay Dhani 44 (23) | Jagandeep Singh 1-22

Despite being in the game for large chunks of the game, Koln CC ended up on the losing side. They will blame themselves for the way they succumbed to the pressure that came their way by the final over. 

It was thought that when the set batters Akshay Dhani and Deepak Demiwal both got dismissed in one over of Nikhil Patil that the Koln chase will go haywire. 

However, Jagandeep Singh and Manav Panwar ensured that the chase was on when they walked out to bat. They tried to get their team over the finish line but somehow could not quite ensure that by the end of the evening. 

The Challengers, therefore, end up winning the Koln derby. This will make them very happy and give them a lot of momentum going further into the tournament. Koln CC will only blame themselves for the way they let this game slip from their grasp!

Vijayaraghavan Moorthy0/10
9.6 Vijayraghavan Moorthy to Manav Panwar, SIX! Too late! Full on the middle-stump, and Panwar lifts it over long-on for a maximum to finish the innings but Koln CC have fallen short by five runs!
9.5 Vijayraghavan Moorthy to Ahmed Likhon, full on the off-stump, Likhon mis-times the loft and drives it to covers for just a single
9.4 Vijayraghavan Moorthy to Ahmed Likhon, full on the middle-stump, slog-swept to mid-wicket, no timing on it but it drops short of a running long-off, they take two
9.4 Vijayraghavan Moorthy to Ahmed Likhon, WIDE, this time the ball keeps going out with he line outside the off-stump
9.3 Vijayraghavan Moorthy to Ahmed Likhon, DOT BALL! Full on the fourth stump, Likhon goes for the big shot down the ground but misses
9.2 Vijayraghavan Moorthy to Manav Panwar, full toss on the stumps and Panwar gets no timing on it, goes to mid-wicket for a single
9.1 Vijayraghavan Moorthy to Manav Panwar, short and on the off-stump, Moorthy falls while bowling and Panwar's cut can't clear cover
Vijayaraghavan Moorthy, right arm medium, will bowl the final over.

With the last over about to come up, Koln CC will want to chase these runs down quickly. Koln Challengers have also run out of the time they were allotted to bowl their overs, and hence have been penalised five runs. Koln CC need 17 runs off the last over!

8.6 Naga Guntur to Manav Panwar, shorter on the pads, pushed to square leg for a single
8.5 Naga Guntur to Ahmed Likhon, driven to mid-off for a single
Ahmed Likhon, LHB, is in at 6.
8.4 Naga Guntur to Jagandeep Singh, BOWLED! Good length and nips in to hit the top of off, past Singh's hoick straight over the wicket

Jagandeep Singh b Naga Guntur 13 (5b 1x4 1x6)
8.3 Naga Guntur to Jagandeep Singh, SIX! No doubt about that, fuller and on the stumps, Singh hoicks it over mid-on for a biggie!
8.2 Naga Guntur to Jagandeep Singh, OH WHAT AN EFFORT! Jagandeep smashed this from outside the off-stump to long off where the fielder jumps and grabs it with one hand, just over the rope and throws it in the air as the momentum is throwing him back. We are checking if his foot touched the rope and he has not!!! He saves 2!
8.2 Naga Guntur to Jagandeep Singh, short and outside the off-stump again, the googly doesn't turn enough and it's called WIDE
8.1 Naga Guntur to Jagandeep Singh, FOUR! Short and cut away in the air for a boundary to point!
