That's the end of the game and LIONS wrap up a massive victory winning by 8 wickets. BOLAND was never in the game but that is more down to LIONS's excellent performance than it was the former's poor effort. The bowlers were probably licking their lips when they saw the pitch today - the pitch was very sporting, to say the least. All of the disciplines benefited greatly throughout the day. These two teams were fairly evenly matched so it was tough to predict the outcome. That being said LIONS proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory.

What a finish! A nail-biter to the very end. Well played to both teams, but in the end, there can be only one winner. TITANS will breathe a sigh of relief after today's match and will be hoping to be more authoritative in the next one. The bowlers were probably licking their lips when they saw the pitch today - the pitch was very sporting, to say the least. All of the disciplines benefited greatly throughout the day. These two teams were fairly evenly matched so it was tough to predict the outcome. That being said TITANS proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory.
