Commentary

That's it from this enthralling match, folks! This has been Pradeep signing off for Sportskeeda! Stay safe and take care!
Bayer Spartans won the game by 7 wickets!

Taha Hassan 44(14) | Shazaib Khan 36(17) | Ejaz Hashmi 2-0-22-2 | Adeeb Asgher 2-1-13-1

Well, little bit of nerves at the end, but Taha proved to be too good. His innings of 44 from 14 balls proved to be the difference in the end. Spartans didn't get off to all that a good start and that meant, they needed to catch up in the middle overs. 

Spartans lost two wickets early, Taha and Shazaib took the onus of getting themselves back in the game and they did in splendid fashion. The duo put on a 60 plus partnership for the third wicket and pretty much closed the doors for the Rising Stars in the end.

Impressive bowling performance from Asgher who bowled 4 dot balls in the penultimate over, but there was no able support for him to trouble the batters in the end to win them the game. Another loss for the Rising Stars and they need to pick themselves up here to win a game.
7.2 Varun Reddy to Taha Hassan, THAT'S IT! Bayer Spartans register their first win in their second game and that's a clinical performance from them. Short outside the off-stump, Taha flat batted it down to long-off for just one.
7.1 Varun Reddy to Taha Hassan, SIX! BOOM! Half-tracker, Taha doesn't miss out as he reaches and smokes it way over deep square-leg for a maximum. Scores are level now!
Varun Reddy to bowl the final over!
Well, well, with the way they were going, didn't think it would come down to the last over and they need 7 runs now.

6.2 Adeeb Asgher to Shazaib Khan, OUT! STUMPED! That is the end of Shazaib, skips down the track to heave, but doesn't get to the pitch of the ball and misses. Keeper collects and whips the bails off in a flash.
