RCD vs USCM

Thanks a lot for joining us- Mohul Bhowmick and Pradeep- for this excellent game of cricket in ECS Dresden! We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did bringing it to you. Until next time, ciao!

RC Dresden beat USC Magdeburg by 9 wickets!

Sandeep Kamboj 29* (21) | Vivek Chakankar 2-15
Gulzar Rasool 28* (15) | Belal Zadran 1-11

As was expected, Dresden managed to chase these runs down quickly and win this game. With this victory in so few overs, they have boosted their net run rate tremendously. 

Magdeburg will be quite disappointed with their showing with the bat in hand, as that is what led them to lose this match eventually. Although their bowlers tried their best to try and salvage the game for them, they had far too few runs on the board to work with. 

The batters of Dresden, despite losing skipper Vivek Chakankar early on, managed to stay firm and do what was needed for them to win this game. Magdeburg will consider themselves to be quite fortunate that Dresden did not really give them an absolute drubbing. 

If they could have so wished, Dresden could have won this game in the fourth or fifth over itself but they chose to slow things down and play each ball on its merit. In the end, though, they managed to win this game quite comfortably!

6.6 Rahul Movva to Gulzar Rasool, SIX! GAME, SET AND MATCH! RC Dresden thump USC Magdeburg here, pick up two crucial points. Back of a length on the off-stump, Rasool clubbed it away and this one goes all the way over long-on for a huge maximum to seal the deal.

6.4 Rahul Movva to Gulzar Rasool, back of a length on the off-stump, Rasool looks to heave it but mistimes it straight to square-leg fielder for no run.

6.3 Rahul Movva to Gulzar Rasool, FOUR! Wheels are coming off now for Magdeburg. Back of a length on the middle and leg, Rasool swivels and swipes it behind square, runs away and finds the ropes.

6.1 Rahul Movva to Sandeep Kamboj, short into the batter, Kamboj pulled that one away but falls well short of deep mid-wicket fielder for a single.

Rahul Movva [1-0-8-1] is back into the attack.

Dresden need just twelve runs to win this game. They have been ahead of this match for ages and should be able to wrap it up quite quickly.

5.4 Vinod Budati to Sandeep Kamboj, goes over the wicket, length delivery on the leg-stump. Kamboj swipes it to deep square-leg for just a single.

5.3 Vinod Budati to Sandeep Kamboj, SIX! BAM! Short into the batter, sits up nicely for Kamboj who gets into position and powered it way over deep mid-wicket fence for another maximum.

5.1 Vinod Budati to Gulzar Rasool, SIX! BANG! Length delivery on the off-stump, Rasool this time gets hold of it and smokes it straight down the ground for a huge maximum.
