Commentary

So, that will be it from this game from the Roma Cricket Ground. Do switch tabs and join us for the next game happening in just a few minutes from now. This is Rudransh and Bidipto taking your leave. Keep following Sportskeeda! 
Asian Latina Cricket Club win by 65 runs! 

Amandeep Singh 69* (35) | Jaswinder Mangat - 3/2 (1)
Indika Senn - 36 (24) and 2/19 (2)

This was a really poor run chase from Casilina as the effort to go for the target was missing from the very first over. They did not show the intent necessary to chase down totals in excess of 130. They simply ensured that they bat out the 10 overs somehow. Given the points table, that too does them no good as they need points on the board, first thing. 

There were only 2 batters who got to two figures but their strike rates were 150 and 84.61, respectively. Simply not good enough when they are your openers. Even that strike rate of 150 looks deceptive as Indika Perera did not really go for enough shots to put the foot on the accelerator from the power play itself. 

A tidy effort in the field and some fine bowling too ensured that the asking rate would always remain out of reach for Casilina. Asian Latina Cricket Club now have a chance of making the final four but their opponents are yet to register their second win of the season.
