Cricket Airtel Champions League T20; Review day 10
On the 10th day of the Airtel Champions League T20, Lions and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mumbai-c820 Indians prevailed in their matches adding two points each to their point’s tables. Lions thwarted uninspired Guyana with a nine-wicket defeat with more than four overs to spare,
while Mumbai Indians sealed two-run victory on the last ball of nerve-jangling match.
The nine wicket victory of Lions, in front of an adoring home crowd of Johannesburg, has boosted their prospects of making the semis of the second edition of Champions League T20. Mumbai Indians, on the other hand, failed to proceed to the next stage of
Airtel Champions League T20, despite their close two-run victory against Royal Challengers Bangalore at Kingsmead, Durban.
In the 14th match of the Champions League T20, played between Lions and Guyana, skipper Alviro Petersen and Richard Cameron complemented Ethan O’Reilly’s four-wicket haul to take the hosts home on the first ball of 16th over with nine
wickets still intact.
The Lions, after winning the toss, put the visitors into bat first. The batting line-up of Guyana failed to face the attack of Lions lead by Ethan O’Reilly’s. Only Steven http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Jacobs-c65213 resisted scoring 34 runs off 37 balls, while rest of the cast floundered against
Ethan O’Reilly and succumbed for scores below 22. The opening pair, featuring Travis Dowlin and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sewnarine-Chattergoon-c89221, posted a joint tally of 11 runs before losing their wickets to O’Reilly. Dowlin was the first one to lose his wicket on the seventh ball
of match after scoring runs with 7 on the board. O’Reilly trapped him leg before as the ball swung sharply into the batsman.
Chattergon and skipper Ramnaresh Sarwan added 25 more runs to the scorecard before the latter was sent back by Alexander. The Lions’ skipper tried to square drive Alexander’s full, gentle loosener on off stump on the up through the covers but Symes at point
with a quick dive to his right took a brilliant catch, sending rampant Ramnaresh back. Ramnaresh’s 16-ball 21 contained four muscular boundaries. The skipper was followed back by opener Chattergoon the next over for only 4, as the visitors faltered to 42 for
3.
35-run stand between Steven Jacobs and Christopher Barnwell relaxed the nerves of Guyana. Jacob struck five boundaries in his 37-ball 34, while Barnwell’s 11-run innings contained a lofty six off Alexander through the midwicket. The Caribbean T20’s champions
Guyana were able to amass 148 for 9 from their allotted 20 overs. Ethan O’Reilly finished with 4 for 27 from his four-over spell, while Robert Frylinck, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Craig-Alexander-c1288 and Aron Phangiso shared one wicket each.
In reply to the half centuries from Alviro Petersen and Richard Cameron took the side home quite easily in the 16th over with nine wickets in hand, despite losing first wicket for 16 in the 3rd over. The only man to lose his wicket
was http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Jonathan-Vandiar-c1730, who nicked Crandon to Christian behind the stumps.
The second match of the day was played at Kingsmead, Durban and the contesting teams were Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore. Mumbai Indians won the match with 2 runs on the last ball of the match but the thrilling victory turned out to be useless,
as it failed to take the side through the semi-finals of Airtel Champions League T20.
While chasing a competitive target of 165 runs set by the Mumbai Indians, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Virat-Kohli-c95424 blazed away with the bat but their pugnacious 63-run stand off just 37 balls was not enough to deny Mumbai Indians. Dravid scored unbeaten 71 runs from
58 balls, while Kohli played a pugnacious knock of 47 runs from just 24 balls hitting five boundaries and two sixes.
