Commentary

So, the Super Giants came back well to square the ledger off. Both teams pick up a loss and a win from today. Join us tomorrow for more. Goodbye for now. Darpan Tikiya signs off. 
Lisbon Super Giants beat Lisbon Capitals by 43 runs.

Amandeep Singh 35 (19) | Nilesh Suryawanshi 3/12
Jatinder Kumar 3/21 & 9* (12)

Sitting through that innings as a Capitals supporter must have felt like watching a really bad movie and wishing for it to come to an end soon. They did not have a big target to chase but made an absolute meal of it. 

It started off on a positive note with Amir Dar hitting the first ball for a boundary. But he played a false shot on the second ball and it all went downhill from there. Jaswant Singh and Nilesh Surywanshi bowled spells up top that will be talked about in that LSG camp for a while. 

They had the opponent reeling at 26/6 by the time their overs came to fruition. They remainder of the innings felt like nails scratching a chalkboard. The Capitals kept on swinging in ugly fashion and kept on missing. They end up with a scratchy 9* from their no. 11 as the highest score. That tells the tale in itself.

Amandeep Singh0/1
8.6 Amandeep Singh to Manveer Kumar, he has swung the bat so hard that the recoil has made him loses his balance. Still nothing on the ball. 
8.5 Amandeep Singh to Manveer Kumar, more of the same. 
8.4 Amandeep Singh to Manveer Kumar, swings hard again. Had he connected, the ball would have landed in Spain. He did not.
8.3 Amandeep Singh to Manveer Kumar, swings with all his might. Doesn't make contact. 
8.2 Amandeep Singh to Jatinder Kumar, drives it in the air. The ball lands safely but the man from deep extra cover runs around to save four. 
8.1 Amandeep Singh to Jatinder Kumar, length ball nipping in. The batter plays it with a straight bat back to the bowler.
