Commentary

Giarmata win by 15 runs!

Well, the 15 penalty runs comes back to haunt BUG. That is the difference between the two sides. Tahzeeb, Manmeet, and Lahiru were sent back to the hut in the first two overs as the scoreline read 10-3 by the end of two overs. It looked as if BUG were staring at a heavy defeat, but Waqas gave them a glimmer of hope. 

A 15 ball half-century saw them inch close to a win with majority of the runs coming from the leg side. However, one mistimed shot and his knock came to an end. Three successive boundaries in the last over from Amila Perera trimmed down the gap as it could help them in the net run rate case. 

Giarmata were excellent in the field as they rarely dropped any catches and conceded only 21 extras. Manohar picked three wickets while Chamalka had two to his name. That's all from your host Abhishek as I bid adieu.
