Commentary

That's all from us then! This is Soumarya Dutta, signing off on behalf of my partner Mohul Bhowmick! See you soon!
Lathbury Lightning 70/8 in 10 overs
Iain Latin 34(28) | Sadeq Maroof 2/15
Edmund Packard 18(9) | Javed Khan 2/17

This has been an unbelievable win for the Fossum and Lathbury have just made a mess of this game from a winning position. They batted well for the major part of the innings but failed to get 8 runs of the final over. Iain Latin anchored the chase and played a stroke filled innings of 34 but he succumbed when it mattered the most and couldn't get bat on ball in the final over. Edmund Packard was the only other batter to get to double figures and when he was hitting them, they seemed to be favorites to win the game.

The Fossum team did really well for the major part of the innings but they just slipped back a bit in the final few overs and it looked like the game had gone away from their grasp. However Wahidullah Sahak bowled an over for ages and won them the game. Sadeq Maroof, the off spinner was incredible too as was Javed Khan. Both of them picked up two wickets each to build up the pressure on Lathbury in the middle overs.
Fossum win by 6 runs!
