MATCH OVER!

United Csalad Budapest won by 11 runs!

United Csalad Budapest 83/7 (10)
Cobra CC 72/6 (10)

Sanjay Kumar 32* (20) | Shahryar Butt 15 (6)

Ghulam Abbas 2-0-4-3 | Ashrith Darapureddy 2-0-16-1

What a superb win from UCB in the end as they sneak in a 11-run victory. After posting 83/7, it seemed like Cobra CC had the advantage. However, Cobra CC got off to a bad start in the chase as the duo of Hafeez Ullah and Sheikh Rasik departed in the second over. Satyadeep Ashwathnarayana was the next to be dismissed as Cobra CC were reduced to 15-3. At one end, Anuj Kumar struggled to get going and he was eventually retired out in the sixth over. 

Cobra CC were dealt with a bigger blow when the dangerous Usama Muhammad was run-out in the seventh over. UCB were still put under slight pressure when Shaharyar Butt opened but the wily Ashrith Darapureddy castled him at the end of the eighth over. Kasir Ahmed followed it up with a economical penultimate over as Cobra CC required 24 off the last six balls. Sanjay Kumar gave his best and remained unbeaten in the end but his side still fell short by 11 runs!

9.6 Saurabh Mehta to Sanjay Kumar, length ball outside off swinging away, Sanjay slices it down to deep third man. The fielder there puts down a tough chance and his throw is a wayward one. Both batters were in the middle of the pitch and walking through. A better throw would've found both of them well short. The batters complete the run in the end and UCB have pulled off an absolute heist! 

9.6 Saurabh Mehta to Sanjay Kumar, NO BALL! SIX! A Massive full toss down the leg side, Sanjay swivels and helps it on its way over the fine leg region for a huge maximum! 

9.4 Saurabh Mehta to Sanjay Kumar, length ball outside off swinging away, Sanjay has another big swipe at that. As the trend goes, he misses once again. 

9.3 Saurabh Mehta to Sanjay Kumar, length ball on the middle stump swinging away, Sanjay has another massive hoick at that but cannot get bat on ball. 

9.1 Saurabh Mehta to Sanjay Kumar, FOUR! SHOT! They need a few more of those! Length ball on the fourth stump line, Sanjay looks to pull but ends up slicing it over the keeper's head. The long stop makes an error and lets it through to the fence! 

8.4 Kasir Ahmed to Sanjay Kumar, back of a length ball outside off swinging away, Sanjay shuffles across and goes for the almighty pull across the line only to miss it completely! 

8.1 Kasir Ahmed to Sanjay Kumar, DROPPED! Oh dear! Full and outside off swinging away, Sanjay looks to hoick it away but gets a thick outside edge high in the air. Swirling around there and the point region puts it down.
