Commentary

That brings us to the end of our coverage of this match. There's another ECS match starting shortly, that means it's time for me, Pradeep to sign off. Stay safe and take care!
Berlin Cricket Academy won the game by 6 wickets!

Sandan Chintanippu 47(16) | Mughil Viswanathan 32(18)* | Rahul Grover 2-0-26-2 | Kapil Chandnani 2-0-25-1

Well, it was a thumping win for Berlin Cricket Academy. When a team posts a total of 123, you'd want to believe that the chasing team will be under pressure but Berlin Cricket Academy showed no signs of it as they kept clearing the ropes and cruised to the target.

The RC Dresden bowlers were put to sword and partly themselves have to blame for that thrashing they received. After dismissing Shubham Patil, they had a chance to remove Sandan in the same over but Kamboj drops a sitter at long-off and Sandan went on to make them pay for it as he clobbered 47 off just 16 along with Mughil as they both put on a show in the middle.

RC Dresden bowlers once again drop Sandan later but the damage was done already. Berlin Cricket Academy lost heaps of wickets towards the end of the game, but they just needed a solitary run to win the game and fittingly Mughil hits the winning runs and they stay at the top of the table with four out of four wins now.
8.2 Vivek Chakankar to Mughil Viswanathan, FOUR! GAME, SET AND MATCH! Berlin Cricket Academy, the reigning champions continue their winning streak. Short and outside the off-stump, Mughil slashes it over backward point, runs away and finds the ropes.
8.1 Vivek Chakankar to Mughil Viswanathan, length delivery outside the off-stump, Vivek reaches to drive but ends up getting the inside edge into the on-side.
The game could've been over in the last over, but they lose two wickets and the scores are level still!
