Basnahira seal their spot in the final — one year on, they’re back with a shot at redemption.

On a true hard pitch, Joe Root picked the perfect moment to break his lean patch. The veteran anchored the innings with a fluent 138 off 139 balls, keeping the scoreboard ticking through partnerships with Iyer, Mendis, and Shanaka. Ramesh Mendis added the late surge, smashing an unbeaten 80 as Basnahira closed on 291/8 — a total they would’ve gladly taken at the start.

Ratnapura’s chase started in disarray, and never quite recovered. Jasprit Bumrah ripped through the top order in a searing opening spell and returned at the death to finish with record-breaking figures of 7 for 46 — the best of the tournament so far, overtaking
Rajitha’s earlier mark. Asalanka (81) and Samarawickrama (54) showed fight in the middle overs, but the task proved too steep.

This means only one of Colombo or Jaffna can qualify. Colombo winning would seal their spot as the table-toppers while a loss could end their campaign, depending on the Net Run-Rate.

It was a nice tournament. I'm glad that we found some form at the end. @Paranoid Kendroid Thanks for organizing the league. I loved the pace of the league !

Sad that Klaasen had to end his ECL career with only 1 trophy.

I promise to all the fans that we'll come back stronger next time.

That is the stuff of dreams from Basnahira Cricket Dundee! I couldn't be happier with how the lads fared against a fairly formidable opponent who would've likely come out all guns blazing considering the fact that they have nothing to lose. To me personally, Samarawickrama and Asalanka held the key for Ratnapura, and seeing them chime in with runs legit made me wonder if they could pull off a near-impossible win despite that new ball burst from Jasprit Bumrah, but boy am I glad how that wasn't the case. A massive statement win with Root and Bumrah, two mainstays of our team putting on the best individual batting and bowling performances for Basnahira players in the league's history, and in a must-win game no less.

On a side note, Jasprit Bumrah might legit be the greatest Indian cricketer of all time, and I'm not hyperbolic in the slightest. India love their batters, but their ain't never been anybody like Bumrah hailing from that country, and I doubt we'll see anyone like him in at least our lifetimes.

One more game, one final hurdle. Hope we pull through.

Yes there is a chance but it's very low since the NRR difference between Colombo and us is fairly big and the target that they need to chase isn't that high either.
But you never know. Let's hope Kandy win by a big margin !

I agree with you. I'm sure we'll see better batsmen than Kohli and Sachin (Vaibhav has the potential) but a bowler like Bumrah might never be seen in the sport of cricket after he retires.

Colombo through to the Final despite a loss; Jaffna's campaign comes to a halt.

Sunrisers Kandy may have already been out of contention, but they finish their season on a high. Marco Jansen was the star of the night, claiming a stunning 6-wicket haul to derail the Colombo chase and seal his side’s consolation win.

Kandy’s total of 254/8 was built around a patient 51 from Kamil Mishara and a quickfire 41* from Wanindu Hasaranga. Kusal Mendis’ 48 anchored the middle overs, while Jansen and Hasaranga’s 61-run stand provided late impetus. Despite some loose overs, the Qalandars’ attack — led by Jeffrey Vandersay (3/42) and Muditha Lakshan (2/41) — kept the total within reach.

The chase, however, never got going. Colombo lost both openers early and slipped further when Kohli's diving catch removed KL Rahul. Bracewell struck a defiant 56, but Jansen ripped through the order as Colombo were bowled out for 219 in the 44th over.

Thanks for participating @mohsin7827 @BasketballHooper @Aravind. @Till Valhalla @Viper. @DuneTiger
 
We began the season on a strong note, winning three matches in a row against three formidable opponents, but then lost the plot. We made a return by winning three straight matches again, but we are still catching up with the NRR. Four consecutive losses wrecked our hopes; only if we had done something differently.

But... this is still the season to be proud of the beginning and the end (not so much the midst).

About Heinrich Klaasen: He has been a prolific scorer for us, ranking among the top scorers each season; he has also performed well this season. Would have hoped to lift the trophy under his captaincy, but you can't always get what you want. It is unfortunate he may not return next season, let's just hope for the best.

Thanks @BasketballHooper for being such passionate co.

Thanks @Paranoid Kendroid for hosting, another great season of ECL, love last round drama!

Congrats to finalists, @Na Maloom Afraad , @Perfect Square
NMA, third time lucky charm

Colombo are one formidable opposition, but I believe. I believe we have all the tools at our disposal to take out the championship and right our wrong from last year.

Lowkey criminal leaving Root out after that knock, but I believe our strongest suit is our bowling, and we need to go all out with our attack if we wish to subdue the likes of Head, Nissanka, Rahul and Bracewell. Starc is a big match player, as is Hazlewood, as is Bumrah. I just hope our pace trinity delivers on the big day.

May the best team win @Perfect Square :cheers
