Commentary

So, that is it from myself, Karthik Raj and my co-commentator, Bidipto Datta. Do stay tuned to Sportskeeda's live coverage of various cricket matches including the game between Hammarby and Marsta which is set to begin in little over 10 minutes time. Fans will of course not forget the crucial IPL game between Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians at 7.30 PM too. So, there is a lot of cricket content to unpack. Don't miss out on any!
Two runs and two wickets off the final over as Stockholm Tigers create history by defending 62!! What a sensational victory for the Tigers while it is agony for Stockholm Mumbai Indians who remain winless in ECS history!

Chasing 63 for their maiden victory, Stockholm Mumbai Indians got off to the perfect start as they got 15 runs from the first over. However, those three boundaries turned out to be the only ones off the innings as batsman after batsman departed to the pavilion. The trio of Shahnawazur Rahman, Shaurav Sarkar and Asif Ferdoush took two wickets each while MD Ashraful Alam, Monjurul Akash and MD Shahadatul Islam contributed a wicket each.

In the end, Stockholm Mumbai Indians ended up with only 49-9 to lose by 13 runs. The collapse was so bad that they were 19-0 after two overs!
