And we're back for the second innings. Chennai have been set a challenging 162 to win at home, and will likely go all guns blazing as a loss here would force them into a must-win scenario away at Monkey Park. Man D, on the other hand, are desperate to make it to the finals. After all, they've spent 41 million and were unstoppable in the league stages, and to lose it at the semis would just be heart-wrenching. Will Man D be heartbroken, or will Chennai be destroyed? We're about to find out...

0.1 Zorax Doom to Naresh091, Inside edge, and past the stumps. The batsmen take a quick single (1)
0.2 Zorax Doom to Adyhorn, Tries to work it off his legs, misses, and the fielders go up in appeal! It has to be out, it HAS to be out! NOOOOO! The umpire is unmoved! Gosh that must have been close. (0)
0.3 Zorax Doom to Adyhorn, Shortish delivery on the stumps, the batsman backs away and swats it to cover for a single (1)
0.4 Zorax Doom to Naresh091, Ah, the quicker ball. The batsman was late on it. No run. (0)
0.5 Zorax Doom to Naresh091, Nice yorker! The batsmen gets a thin inside edge and the ball flies past the legstump and the keeper. Fine leg fields to keep it down to two. (2)

The final scorecard for second innings was :

Wickets : 7
Overs : 20.0


A
nd the Man D juggernaut keeps on rolling! A Syd Barnes Special ensure there will be no heartbreak for Man D and hands Chennai a crushing loss in the first leg on the semi finals! Syd Barnes wasted no time making an impact, taking a wicket off his first ball and two off his first over. He finished with 5 in his first three as Chennai were reduced to 39/6 by the time was powerplay was over, and Chennai never looked like winning it from there. Karachi Xpress, Ranji and Pal weighed in with cameos, but it wasn't enough. Harris bowled his 4 overs for just 18 runs as Chennai faded away feebly, slipping to a 1 game deficit and facing a mountain to climb in the second leg. As for Man D, they'll have their eyes firmly on the PCPL Championship, and one senses no one will stop them getting there in this form. Chennai need a rethink, especially about playing only 5 bowlers...

Absolutely fantastic effort by us. A doggid effort with the bat from Viv & Covvy really did save us and brings me on to my next point with it being that our batting has to get into shape.

Our bowling was tight and disciplined (with my exception) :p and I feel with this performance, we have a psychological boost heading into the grand final!

Yeah a good win. A duck off 1st ball, i didn't expected that. Any way the team perform well. We are all set to reach the final, aren't we?

Bad performance guys. I bowled well but batted badly, 7(13), 3-27(4) and 1 catch.

Green pitch would be better for us because that'll mean slower run rates?

Green pitch might work, since it disadvantages spinners, and Chennai have Qadir, Gillyfan and possibly Rhodes (If they choose to add a 6th bowler next game). We could always drop Arlsaan and one of Chez/Harris for WHM and Roborocks.

Alternatively, I'd prefer Dusty and go full strength ahead with our current lineup, and hope our batters and spinners outdo theirs.
