Commentary

As expected, a rather easy chase for Zagreb this, getting the job done in just 6.3 overs with nine wickets to spare. All they needed was one good partnership, which they got with Vijay Bhammar (24*) and Nils Gornall (14*) at the crease. MD Shaikat set the tone with a quick-fire 8-ball 19 at the top. 

Not a lot the Borosplit bowlers could do really as they never had enough runs to play with. Just a bad day for them as they were outplayed in all departments of the game by the opposition. 

Zagreb will be pretty pleased this performance, setting it up nicely with the ball and then the batters making light work of the target, taking them over the line with ease and in style. A perfect game for them you'd reckon and a good way to end the day as well. 

That is all we have from this match and for the day. Stay tuned for more ECS action coming your way as I (Rishab) and Maanas, take your leave. See y'all around soon folks!
That is it! Finished off in style, done and dusted and a commanding win for Zagreb this! Nine wickets to spare and they have completely dominated this game all the way through!
6.3 Sellamuthu Ramasamy to Nils Gornall, FOUR! SHOT! Length ball outside off swinging away, Gornall holds his ground and thumps that through the extra cover region for a boundary! Uppish but well in the gap!
6.2 Sellamuthu Ramasamy to Nils Gornall, full ball sliding down the leg side. Just takes a little pad on it en route the keeper. 
6.1 Sellamuthu Ramasamy to Nils Gornall, back of a length ball wide outside off, Gornall chases it and slaps that straight to the fielder at extra cover. No run!

Past the fifty mark and they are doing this easily and comfortably now. Couple of boundaries and this is a good over for Zagreb. 11 runs coming off it eventually and they are just a hit away now. Two runs is all they need and this is as good as over!

Half-way through the chase! Zagreb well on track to finish this game comfortably from here. This has been a good over from Mohan but unless Brodosplit get wickets, this is not helping their cause. Just six off the over. Only looks like delaying the inevitable at the moment though. 13 more needed, potentially couple of hits!
