Commentary

Hope you liked our coverage, folks! This is the pair of Rudransh and Bidipto signing off!
End of the innings!

Friends XI win by 34 runs.

Azam Khalil 40 (16) | Noman Ali (2/13)
Roshan Silva 23 (13) | Gayan Silva 1/10

An exceptional all-round performance from Friends XI gets them the much-deserved two points. They have comprehensively beaten Milan United in all three departments and it's a win to be proud of.

Milan had a 50-50 chance to chase it down in the second innings but lost the plot when they were able to score just 8 runs in the first two overs. Silva and Theshan brought back hope with their assault in the third and fourth overs.

However, the introduction of Khalil's spin completely killed the game. He got both set batters out and Vishal on the other end didn't concede much either. This meant that even though MU had a decent batting remaining, they had too much to do.

They couldn't do anything at all and crumbled in the final two overs, falling massively short.
