Commentary

With that the league stage of ECS Spain T10 has come to fruition. We now head over to the knockouts tomorrow. The coverage will continue on Sportskeeda. For now, this is me, Darpan Tikiya, signing off with my co-commentator Mohul Bhowmick. 
Catalunya Jaguars win by 34 runs. 

Zulqarnain Haider 71* (23) | Hamza Saleem Dar 2/40
Kamran Raja 48 (18) | Waseem Abbas 1/38

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? We have seen two T10 games in day where scores of 170+ ended up on the losing side. While, Pak Barcelona won the first match, Catalunya Jaguars came back to put up a 210 run mountain on the board batting first. 

Pak Barcelona were never in the chase. Hamza Saleem Dar started off brilliantly sending the dangerous pair of Waseem Abbas and Rehman Ullah back early. After that, Pak Barcelona were always playing catch up. Though Kamran Raja and Faisal Shah lit up the ground with some power hitting and made a case for a promotion in the batting order. 

In the end, it was Adalat Ali's, "look other way" ball that got him a wicket and got us smiling with fascination. The Jaguars can feel elated for having redeemed themselves for the afternoon's loss.

9.1 Adalat Ali to Kamran Raja, GONE! Tossed up wide outside off, turns back in. Raja comes forward and tries to slog it away up and over long off for a maximum but he does not connect too well. The ball goes straight to the fielder stationed there for a simple catch!

Karman Raja c Hamza Dar b Adalat Ali 48 (18b 3x4, 5x6)
Adalat Ali, right arm offspin, to bowl.

Right, down to last over. Only formalities now. No way they're getting 54 of last 6.
