Gurgaon Warriors v Mewat Royals
Gurgaon Warriors won the toss and elected to bat first. On a damp wicket, Warriors started their innings on a positive note with Kunwar Raj hitting three boundaries in the first two overs. But could not control a back foot punch to a ball which stuck into the wicket a bit. Analyzing the wicket, warriors then used a cautious approach with main focus on singles and occasional boundaries which might come. Rahul Nair played this role brilliantly. KK Beniwal then provided the late impetus to the innings with a quick fire 27. Rahul Nair ended with a score of 45 of 47. Anjum who was used as the fifth bowler kept picking vital wickets in the end to keep the Warriors score to just 145. Mewat Royals needed to capitalize on the powerplay but Warriors new ball bowlers didn't allow them too many lose deliveries. Opening pair of Zair and Raj bhat could only manage 35 from the first 6. After the powerplay in an attempt to increase the run rate Royals started losing wickets and at regular intervals. Only Anjum played a little cameo in the end scoring 22 of 13. Vaibhav accounted for 4 wickets giving away just 16 runs from his 3.5 overs.
