Commentary

That's it for this match, folks! This is the pair of Rudransh and Pradeep signing off for Sportskeeda!
End of the match! Berlin CC beat USG Chemnitz by 9 runs!

Sahil Lal 43 (16) | Saddam Gill (1/17)
Edrees Jalalzai 35 (16) | Gopinath Manoharan (3/11) 

What a performance from Berlin CC but USGC would be and should be very disappointed of the collapse. They hadn't lost even a single wicket till the halfway mark but as we said during the innings, a lack of boundaries piles on pressure on the batting side no matter the score.

Jalalzai was stunning at the start but once he got out, Manoharan consumed 20 deliveries for just 21 runs, slowing the innings down. Soraganavi tried to bring some momentum back but was beaten for pace by Vashisht. 

Stanikzai and Udayan both had the chance to finish things off till the last over but a lack of intent at the start and some brilliant death-overs bowling from Berlin CC kept them in check.

9.6 Saddam Gill to Abdul Basir, THAT'S IT! Berlin CC hold on to their nerve and notch up a much needed victory here. Length delivery on the stumps, Basir smacked it down to long-on for just a single.
Abdul Basir, RHB, comes to the crease
9.5 Saddam Gill to Sangeeth Udayan, OUT! MILES UP IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! That should be the game for Berlin CC unless Gill bowls any more no-ball or wides. Length delivery on the stumps, Udayan has skied it and the long-on fielder takes a simple catch.

11 off 2 now!
9.4 Saddam Gill to Sangeeth Udayan, OH! Brilliantly bowled this time, full toss but goes just inside the tramline. Udayan let's it go to the keeper.
9.3 Saddam Gill to Sangeeth Udayan, SIX! BANG! This game is very much alive still. Length delivery on the stumps, Udayan clubbed it straight down the ground for a huge maximum.
9.2 Saddam Gill to Sangeeth Udayan, back of a length outside the off-stump, Udayan has a big swipe across the line and misses as it keeps low.
9.1 Saddam Gill to Sangeeth Udayan, DROPPED! Full toss outside the off-stump, Udayan swings but miscued it straight up and the extra-cover fielder drops a sitter.

9.1 Saddam Gill to Sangeeth Udayan, WIDE! Full and this one just goes past the white line and another wide has been signaled.
9.1 Saddam Gill to Sangeeth Udayan, WIDE! Full but goes way outside the off-stump, called a wide.
Saddam Gill [1-0-6-0] come back into the attack

21 needed off 6 and there's no overrate penalty. USGC need a miracle.

8.6 Awais Zafar to Abdulsamad Stanikzai, back of a length outside the off-stump, Stanikzai slaps it past the covers for only a single.
8.5 Awais Zafar to Sangeeth Udayan, back of a length on the off-stump, Udayan looks to swipe it hard but mistimes it into the on-side for a single.
Some deliberate time wasting there to make sure time runs out for the over-rate
8.4 Awais Zafar to Abdulsamad Stanikzai, back of a length on the off-stump, shapes back in and gets cramped for room. Stanikzai swatted it down to long-off for one.
