DB vs KCH

Dusseldorf Blackcaps - 147/1, beat Koln Challengers - 84/5, by 63 runs and qualify for the first semi-final.

Naule Aravind 21 (18) | Naga Guntur 16 (11) || Muhammad Raheel - 1/8 | Oascoroni Ahamed - 1/8

Muhammad Raheel 66* (27) | Nikhil Patel - 1/10

A highly comfortable victory for Dusseldorf Blackcaps in the end, and easily, a one-sided affair today of all the four quarter-finals. They piled on the runs in plenty and defended those without breaking too much of a sweat. Koln Challengers too did not go after the bowling that well but perhaps, they got batted out of the match much before. 

Now, we have the semi-final line-up ready at the Bayer Uerdingen Cricket Ground. Dusseldorf Blackcaps will take on Golden Star Bonn and then, Bayer Spartans will lock horns against Koln CC. So two teams from Group A and two teams from Group B have qualified. Which two will make the final? Stay with us tomorrow to find out! 

For now, this is the pair of Pragadeesh and Bidipto, saying good bye! Keep following Sportskeeda! 

9.6 Kashif Shahab to Nagendra Donthi, SIX! Slow delivery in the slot, Donthi reads the line and dispatches it over deep mid-wicket for a maximum. There is enough wood in that shot and the ball sails high and handsome

9.4 Kashif Shahab to Srinivas Nareshkumar, FOUR! Short of a length delivery into the boday, Nareshkumar reverses his stance and helps this past backward point for a boundary

Naule Aravind was playing some shots and keeping the viewers slightly entertained, but now, even he is out! Anyway, the last over is upon us now.

8.6 Jamshed Khan to Srinivas Nareshkumar, full angling around off, Nareshkumar tries to help this on the leg-side but the ball beats his outside edge and through to the keeper

8.5 Jamshed Khan to Naule Aravind, OUT! Pitched up around off, Aravind gives room and swings but the ball brushes his outside edge and the keeper takes an easy catch

Naule Aravind c Niraj Patel b Jamshed Khan 21 (18b, 2x4, 1x6)

8.3 Jamshed Khan to Nagendra Donthi, length delivery angling across, Donthi gives room and punches it but he ends up getting a thick outside edge and the ball goes down to the third man. Single taken

Jamshed Khan, right-arm medium fast, is into the attack.

Of all the quarter-final matches on show today, this one has been the most one-sided. And there is no chance it seems for any change to that. A bit of a disappointment for the neutrals and in particular, the Koln Challengers supporters, but maybe that boundary off the last ball of the over will cheer them up somewhat.
