RB vs LS

LIEGE BEAT ROYAL BRUSSELS BY 5 RUNS!

WOW, THAT WAS A CLIFFHANGER! We saw everything here in this game. Royal Brussels tried their best to edge their way through to the total, but the final over proved to be extremely crucial. Javed Oyarkhial (2/21) of Liege held his nerve and took his team to a fabulous victory. Three consecutive dot balls- who gets to see that in this format of the game- that too in the last over?! Oyarkhial needs to be feted!

Harjot Singh (45) and Ali Raza (41 not out) starred with the bat for Liege today while the pick of their bowlers were Oyarkhial and Umair Butt (3/20). This was a complete all-round performance by Liege, and one which takes them to the top of the table. For Royal Brussels, however, their season ended on a bad note, compounding their worries more than they had been before. They need to pull their socks up before returning for another season of this competitionh.

So that's us- Mohul Bhowmick and Maanas Upadhyay- signing off from yet another interesting ECS T10 game here in Mechelen, Belgium. We hope you enjoyed watching the live coverage. Don't go anywhere just yet, and stay with us on Sportskeeda as we bring to you many more such games- the coverage of the Asia Cup encounter between India and Afghanistan, for instance, can be found here. Until next time, ciao!

9.6 Javed Oryakhial to Hameel Hayat, DOT BALL! JAVED HAS DONE IT! And look at him celebrate! Runs through, leaps and pumps the air! Banged in short and outside off, Hayat looks to pull it away but is undone by the bounce on that. Walks back with a dejected look on his face and Liege have pulled off an absolute heist!

9.5 Javed Oryakhial to Hameel Hayat, DOT BALL! Another length delivery that keeps low and evades Hayat's massive hoick. Swung himself off his feet there!

6 runs off the final ball needed now! 

9.4 Javed Oryakhial to Hameel Hayat, length ball outside off, keeps low as Hayat has a waft at it. Misses that completely and the keeper fails to collect that cleanly. However, Siftay is not interested in the single. 

9.3 Javed Oryakhial to Siftay Hassan, back of a length ball on the middle stump line angling in, Hassan pulls that along the ground towards deep mid-wicket for a single. 

Royal Brussels need 6 runs in 3 balls!

9.2 Javed Oryakhial to Sairab Zahid, OUT! CAUGHT! Back of a length ball on the fourth stump line, Zahid looks to hoick it away but ends up getting a top-edge high in the air. The long on fielder has plenty of time to settle under that and pouches that one with relative ease! Whew! What are we in for here?

Sairab Zahid c Ali Raza b Javed Oryakhial 7 (3 balls)

9.1 Javed Oryakhial to Hameel Hayat, length ball on the middle stump angling in, Hayat drags that off the inside-half of the bat towards deep mid-wicket for a single. 

8.6 Haroon Sarkani to Hameel Hayat, full and on the pads, Hayat looks to work it into the leg side but misses. The ball ricochets off his pads into the point region for a single. 

8.5 Haroon Sarkani to Hameel Hayat, FOUR! SHOT! Banged in short and outside off, Hayat looks to pull it through the vacant mid-wicket region for a boundary!

8.3 Haroon Sarkani to Hameel Hayat, into the blockhole and on the fourth stump line, Hayat digs that out but gets an edge to the left of the keeper for a single. 

8.2 Haroon Sarkani to Hameel Hayat, SIX! A maximum this time around! Back of a length ball outside off, Hayat hangs back and whacks that over the long on region for a huge maximum!

8.1 Haroon Sarkani to Hameel Hayat, FOUR! OH DEAR! A low full toss on the pads, Hayat whips that towards deep square leg, who should have collected it on the bounce but ends up palming it over the rope!
