Commentary

So, that is it from myself, Karthik Raj and my co-commentator, Navjeevan Rajput. Don't go anywhere as there are still two games left in the day with Koln Challengers taking on Aachen Rising Stars. There are also various other matches in the offing including the final T20I between Afghanistan and Ireland!
That is it!! Bayer Spartans come from behind to defend 115 and post a three-run victory!! It didn't turn out to be so rosy at the start of the chase as the Golden Star Bonn skipper Zakir Khan came out all guns blazing. The team scored 39 runs in the three-over Powerplay to put themselves in the driver's seat. Niamat Safi got out immediately off Taha Hassan's bowling while Zakir was also sent back by Raj Bhushan in the 5th over. This didn't perturb GSB as Paritosh Bairagi and Gurwinder Singh joined together to plunder the Spartans' bowling attack. Just when it looked like GSB will chase down the target with an over to spare, Bairagi got runout in the eighth over. They were still considered the favourites with 20 runs required off the last 12 balls but Taha Hassan changed the game on it's head by taking two wickets for the cost of just five runs. In the end, Taha Khan followed suit with another fine effort as Spartans mounted an unlikely comeback and eventually won a thriller!

9.6 Taha Khan to Leela Gurugubelli, Palmed over the ropes but BYS Gets the win! Length ball outside off, Leela stands tall and uppercuts this away towards deep point. The sweeper in the deep tries to reverse-cup this one on the ropes but ends up palming this over
9.5 Taha Khan to Gurwinder Singh, That will probably do it for BYS! On the length and angling down leg, Singh clips this off his pads behind the stumps and gets just a leg-bye. GSB needs 10 runs from the final delivery!
9.4 Taha Khan to Gurwinder Singh, length ball outside off, Singh drags this towards deep mid-wicket for a couple. Down to 11 runs needed from 2 balls for GSB!
9.3 Taha Khan to Leela Gurugubelli, full and outside off, Leela drills this towards extra cover for one
9.2 Taha Khan to Gurwinder Singh, full and outside off, Singh drags this towards deep mid-wicket for a single. 14 needed off 4 balls for GSB!
9.1 Taha Khan to Gurwinder Singh, Gold dust! Full and just outside off, Singh tries to swat this across the line but misses
Just sensational from Taha Hassan. He finishes with figures of 2-0-13-4. Golden Star Bonn require 15 runs off the last six balls!

There is another twist in the tale here. Taha Hassan strikes again as Naeem Khan holes out to deep square-leg
8.3 Taha Hassan to Naeem Khan, Holes out! Full and on the stumps, Naeem heaves this across the line towards deep square leg, he gets the height but not the distance as the ball flies straight down Asmari's throat who makes no mistake
