TCB vs BNT Match Preview
In their last game in the competition, Chennai Braves were involved in a low-scoring affair against New York Strikers. Batting first, Chennai Braves scored 75 runs for the loss of nine wickets. The New York Strikers successfully chased the target, losing five wickets. The Chennai team lost four wickets in their second over of the innings. This left them in a big hole, and it was impossible to rise from it again. The NYS managed to roll out an easy five-wicket victory.
The Chennai Braves were reduced to six runs for the loss of four wickets at one stage. Sikandar Raza and Jason Roy tried to rebuild the innings with a 30-run stand. But Sunil Narine got rid of the settled batter, Sikandar Raza, and this meant there was no other opportunity to recover and set a big target. But Sam Cook nearly toppled the opposition’s top order as he picked up the NYS openers for just one run in the first three deliveries of their inning. But the NYS batters did not allow this flutter to get too serious and took the team to a comfortable win.
The Bangla Tigers played their last game against Samp Army. Batting first, the Bangla Tigers scored 82 runs from their quota of overs. The Samp Army team reached the target for the loss of four wickets. Jordon Cox was off in a rush during their inning while getting stuck into the Samp Army bowling attack. But after he got out, the Tigers’ innings was derailed. Bangla Tigers lost the crucial wickets of Daniel Sams and Dominic Drakes on successive deliveries. The tigers were 36 for one at one stage.
But they were reduced to 59 for eight in 22 balls. The Bangla Tigers’ score was raised to 82 runs thanks to the efforts of Benny Howell and Rohan Mustafa. But they were bowled out on the last ball of the innings. The Bangla Tigers picked up the wicket of Faf du Plessis early. But Gous did not allow any collapse, and even though there was a small flurry of wickets in the middle overs, the superb innings by Gous countered the situation effectively. The Samp Army got home with ten balls to spare in the end.
