ZUCC vs COCC

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

Cossonay beat Zurich Crickets by 21 runs!

Anmol Prabhu 68 (25) | Tahirkhan Ahmadzai 4-22
Sahil Tarakhil 44 (13) | Andrew Ryan 2-10

The bowlers of Cossonay were tested to the core by the batters of the Zurich Crickets, especially by Sahil Tarakhil at the top of the order, but once this danger passed, they were able to breathe easy and rest on their laurels. 

Their bowlers did not give away too many freebies to the batters of the Crickets, and this helped them get a wrap around things by the end of the match. The batters of the Crickets did not do too well for themselves, and apart from Tarakhil and Nawroz Jabarkhel later on in the innings, there was no one who stood up and fought against the opposition bowlers. 

Leg spinner Tahirkhan Ahmadzai, who has been phenomenal for Cossonay this season, was on point yet again and spun a web around the Crickets. Cossonay will feel that they need to carry this form of theirs forward further into the competition.

9.6 Andrew Ryan to Nawroz Jabarkheel, full outside off, Jabarkheel carved this one towards the third man region. Just a single. Hotak wanted a second, was sent back, and ended up bumping into the keeper as he made his ground! Cossonay beat the Zurich Crickets by 21 runs!

9.5 Andrew Ryan to Ziaulhaq Hotak, wide yorker, Hotak gave it the helicopter but didn't quite find the gap. The fielder at deep point got across and returned, just a single

9.2 Andrew Ryan to Ziaulhaq Hotak, full and wide outside off, Hotak swung and missed. Jabarkheel joined him at the striker's end as the keeper lobbed the ball towards the stumps at his end, the ball deflected off Hotak's bat, and so, he was able to get to the other end safely

9.1 Andrew Ryan to Ziaulhaq Hotak, SIX! This was the attempted yorker, but Hotak took it on the volley, gave it the helicopter, and cleared both the man and the ropes at long on!

Andrew Ryan [1-0-1-1] will bowl the final over.

32 runs needed off 6 balls! This game is all but done and in the pockets of Cossonay. The bowling side will want to get through the final over with as few problems as possible.

8.6 Bharath Narayanan to Nawroz Jabarkheel, FOUR! Pitched up outside off stump, Jabarkheel carves this one past extra cover, finds the gap in the deep, finds four!

8.5 Bharath Narayanan to Nawroz Jabarkheel, SIX! In the slot on off stump, Jabarkheel got right under it and clubbed this one over the ropes at long on!

Bharath Narayanan, right arm medium, will bowl the final over.

Eight overs have been bowled, and the Crickets need 45 runs to win this game. It appears to be highly improbable at this point, but one can never say how things will go.
