Gives the vibes of the IPL 2018 qualifier 1. Once again, my team ends up on the losing side, because of Faf :facepalm

Our batting faltered at the most important moment. The time gap was crucial for us. The time this league was originally held, Moeen Ali had spectacular statistics, and was a consistent performer. Over the years, his stats worsened and thus, I had to sub him out.

Overall, great league @Akshay.

That was a heart stopper! This is the advantage of having five world class batsmen in the top five, because if some fail, others will not.
It was a fun couple of matches, probably because of the strength of my team :D
Well played @Yash. and thanks for finishing the league @Akshay.
