Ramblers Win.
 
Hello Everyone and welcome to Faisalabad, Pakistan for the 8th Twenty20 match between Counter Warriors and Royal Ramblers. let me remind you that Counter Warriors lead the series 4-2 and after a super tie in the last match, we can expect some spectacular action here as well.

The pitch is very dry almost dusty. The cracks will assist the spinners throughout the match. But in my opinion, if you win the toss here, you got to bat first.

Royal Ramblers captain Viral won the toss and elected to bat first. Royal Ramblers have a débutante opening for them.

The two openers are out on the crease and the play has begun. The openers started off cautiously. The débutante Appu2146 was obviously under pressure as it was his very first game and an important one for his team. They started off well, but Appu2146 was very tensed and ended up with a big mix up which resulted in the run out of ansariaamir_leo. He doesn't looks happy but has to walk. Karachi Xpress the next batsman to come in tried to help him out but still Appu2146 ended up miscuing one to Nailclaw who made no mistake in catching him. Royal Ramblers were struggling at 25-2, when Karachi Xpress and Giggity took charge. Despite of loosing 2 early wickets they took the attack to Counter Warrior batsmen. Karachi Xpress and Giggity displayed some fancy stroke play and added up massive 122 runs unbeaten partnership. Karachi Xpress played brilliantly for his unbeaten 80 off 55 balls whereas Giggity scored 46 off 43 balls. Royal Ramblers were successful in posting a target of 147 for the Counter Warriors.

The Counter Warriors openers came out to bat with a total to chase. The openers were looking shaky and Royal Ramblers were successful in striking early. Some brilliant fielding helped Royal Ramblers see the back of 6xAfridi, whereas in the very next over Sid produced the most accurate yorker which Left Hander couldn't handle and was out leg before wicket. Counter Warriors were struggling for 13-2 with two new batsmen at the crease. WorldChampions and Tarzan tried to compensate for the loss but Cricketplayer55 struck and dismissed Tarzan. Counter Warriors were in deep trouble at 42-3 when in came Wildwill, the top scorer for Counter Warriors in the series. Wildwill and WorldChampions played some brilliant strokes and Counter Warriors were back in the hunt. The pitch was assisting the bowlers very well and Royal Ramblers bowlers were successful in picking up both of them at the score of 44 each. In 19 overs, Counter Warriors managed 133/5, needing 15 runs off the last over.

The last over is to be bowled by Sid who has so far bowled 3 overs and conceded only 6 runs whereas facing is Ashwin who is playing on 12 runs off 7 balls. It was a desperate competition between bat and bowl. Both the bowler and batsman at their top form and the result was win for both of them. Counter Warriors could only manage 14 runs. Another tie in this series.

It was a great competition between the bat and ball.

For his blistering 80 off 55 balls, Karachi Xpress was awarded the "Man of the Match" award.

Thats all I had for the day. Join in again on 30th June for the last Twenty20 match between these two teams. Till then I'm your host Aamir saying Good Bye and Good Night.


Note : Captains are requested to post their lineups for the next match by 29th June as the next match is on 30th June.
