NYW vs TXC

Misbah Ul Haq, New York Warriors, Captain    - Razzaq gave a great performance and it gave us momentum in the end as he changed the game at the death with those extra 30 runs. The spinners bowled really well and the catching was superb. I wasn't amused with what happened in the last over but all's well that ends well. We wanted to win this game and finish at the top of the table and we have achieved the purpose. 

Abdul Razzaq, Man of the Match- Most of my team mates have supported me a lot including Afridi and Misbah. There is no room for a lapse in a T10 game. It's a tough format and with the short boundaries it's always hard for the batters. So we have to be at our best and at the top of our game. 

Texas Chargers 105/8 in 10 overs
Phil Mustard 22*(16) | Abdul Rehman 3/29
Thisara Perera 19(8)  | Sohail Khan 2/19

It's been an absolutely thrilling contest and the Chargers have lost it narrowly in the end . The Warriors and Sohail Khan held their nerves and emerged victorious. They were cruising at one stage with the Chargers having lost all their batters but Mustard and Tanvir put together a really good partnership to bring them back in the game. 

The Chargers tried to swing their way to win as they played risked filled cricket from ball one. They lost two wickets in the first over and it continued from there onwards as there was a procession of wickets. They tried to arrest the slide as Perera, Mustard and Tanvir made valuable contributions at the back end but it was too tough a mountain to climb. 

The Warriors bowlers took some pounding early on but they hung in there and kept getting the wickets. Rehman was the pick of the bowlers as he got three wickets and Johan Botha picked up two as well. Sohail Khan did the most important job though as he held his nerves and ended the hopes of Chargers for winning the game. 

9.6 Sohail Khan to Sohail Tanvir, OUT!!! Sigh of relief for Misbah and his men. It was in the slot again but Tanvir couldn't quite get underneath that one. He didn't get the timing right and it went to the long on fielder who took it with ease. 

9.6 Sohail Khan to Phil Mustard, short and MUSTARD can't get it away. And surely that's the  GAME for the Warriors as the Chargers can't loose this game. 

9.4 Sohail Khan to Sohail Tanvir, SIX!! BOOM!! It was on the pads again and the leg stump line. Tanvir picked it up and deposited it over the long leg boundary for a MAXIMUM. 

8.6 Umaid Asif to Phil Mustard, slower ball again and into the surface. It's a swing and a miss from Mustard. It will be 19 runs required from the final over for the Chargers. 

8.5 Umaid Asif to Phil Mustard, FOUR!!!! It was a low full toss , on the pads and Mustard just whipped it through the mid wicket region,. Smit Patel was the fielder but it bounced in front of him and went for a boundary. 

8.3 Umaid Asif to Phil Mustard, FOUR!! outside edge and it's four vital runs. Mustard would take that as it helps him to get a much needed move on.
