Fancode in Indian rupee cost around 2 AUD bucks for the tournament.

That’s a bargain.

Don’t know why it’s not on fox some quality players on display.

 

[NYRB]

Deccan post 147/2 against Samp Army in Qualifier.

Janat with the most economical figures of 22 runs conceded from his 2 overs.

Deccan post 147/2 against Samp Army in Qualifier.

Janat with the most economical figures of 22 runs conceded from his 2 overs.

Solid score.

Should be enough to advance to the final.

[NYRB]

Forget the Ashes for a minute, forget the Border Gavaskar- this is the real deal today. This is where the world focusses their attention today. The spotlight is on Abu Dhabi.

I look forward to see how the Aussie lads in Tim David and Chaudhary go today.

 

[NYRB]

Pitch Number 6 will be used, with the left being 64 metres and straight down the track a good 73 metres.

 

[NYRB]

Delhi Bulls in a bit of trouble here 19/3 off 15 balls.

Big Tim David comes in now.

 

[NYRB]

David not rocking a cap or helmet either. He might be feeling the mood today.

 

[NYRB]

Rovman Powell looks so totally unconfident against spinners , it isnt funny.


Qaid concedes just 5 off his first over.

Something has to give with Powell soon. 26/3 is a slow start from Delhi Bulls.

 

[NYRB]

Powell 5 off 9 balls. But it looks like he will just be facing spin when he is there. And he has a lifeline just then.

 

[NYRB]

Every team should just look to bowl quality spinners to Rovman Powell in T20 if they want to get his wicket.

Im also not buying into that six he has in this game, because it was off an unknown spinner.

 

[NYRB]

Sampas bowling attack is just spin heavy and the first 6 overs have just been spin.

 

[NYRB]

Delhi post 89 from their 10 overs in Qualifier and its advantage Morrisville.

 

[NYRB]

Morrisville need 23 off 12 balls with 5 wickets in hand to beat the Delhi Bulls


Good fightback from Delhi this.

 

[NYRB]

Taylor goes 'wham bham thank you mam' Got all of that.

 

[NYRB]

Morrisville need 6 off the last over to make the Grand Final against Deccan.

Going to be a ripper Granny this one.

 

[NYRB]

Jack Taylor is the man!


Its Morrisville v Deccan in the Grand Final in about 45 minutes or so.

 

[NYRB]

Teams for the Final:

Deccan Gladiators (Playing XI): Nicholas Pooran(w/c), Tom Kohler-Cadmore, Jos Buttler, Marcus Stoinis, David Wiese, Usman Tariq, Anrich Nortje, Maheesh Theekshana, Zahoor Khan, Ibrar Ahmad, Richard Gleeson

Morrisville Samp Army (Playing XI): Faf du Plessis, Charith Asalanka, Andries Gous(w), Rohan Mustafa(c), Jack Taylor, Karim Janat, Imad Wasim, Sharjeel Khan, Qais Ahmad, Isuru Udana, Mohammad Zahid

Deccan Gladiators have won the toss and have opted to field

 

[NYRB]

Tidy start from Theekshana, just the 6 off the 1st over.

 

[NYRB]

Rilee Rossouw brought out the Trump dance after catching the ball.

 

[NYRB]

Morrisville post 104 from their 10 overs


Deccan will be the happier of the two sides but pressure in a Final does funny things to people.

 

[NYRB]

Deccan Gladiators win it for a 3rd time.
