Match Summary: Wettingen beat Power CC by 8 wickets.

Perinpam Yogenthiran 74* (26) | Nareshkumar Thangavadivel 2/17 (2)
Osama Mahmood 34 (11) & 2/15 (2) | Thivagaran Selvanayagam 41* (17)

It was expected to be a nerve-wracking chase when Wettingen came out blazing away in the powerplay. It was certainly headed that way at the halfway mark too as it often does in a chase as massive as 138. What happened post that though was nothing short of mind-blowing. The result? Victory with 15 deliveries to spare!

Osama Mahmood picked up from where he left off with the bat with two big wickets in the powerplay. But there was one small blip which would go on to be a massive moment in the game - having given Thivagaran Selvanayagam a lifeline off his own bowling, it proved to be a costly one as the batter duly capitalized on it to dish out a lesson with the bat in the company of his skipper Perinpam Yogenthiran.

Yogenthiran was the star of the show though, dealing in sixes at will and clobbering Sufyan Cheema all around the park. Cheema didn't help himself by going astray in line and landing the ball by the edge of the cut-strip. The extra deliveries proved expensive and his 37-run over was followed by a 28-run one from Abdullah Rana as both Yogenthiran and Selvanayagam continued with their merry ways to bury the chase.

Yogenthiran fittingly had the last say in the result, wrapping things up with consecutive maximums with his partnership with Selvanayagam worth an unbeaten 106. 80 runs came off the last 15 legal deliveries and within the blink of an eye, Wettingen blew Power CC out of the water with a powerful performance of their own. Both teams might have had their struggles in the tournament but gosh, they certainly have entertained us here alright!
And that's how you finish off a chase like that! It has been a special effort from skipper Perinpam Yogenthiran and he has wrapped up a resounding victory for Wettingen. Phew!
7.3 Jamshed Sherzad to Perinpam Yogenthiran, SIX MORE! That is that! Wettingen are home and dry with 15 balls to spare! This was a slow, rank long hop, Yogenthiran waited an age for the ball to come to him, and when it did, he gave it a good whack across the line, and cleared the boundary at mid wicket by the proverbial mile! Wettingen take this game by 8 wickets!
7.2 Jamshed Sherzad to Perinpam Yogenthiran, SIX! Pitched on a length outside off, Yogenthiran waited for it and went on to club the ball down the ground, clearing the ropes at long off by quite a bit!
7.1 Jamshed Sherzad to Thivagaran Selvanayagam, dropped! Good length delivery outside off, Thivagaran slapped the ball down the ground, the man at long on got across, got to the ball but ended up palming it onto the field! The batters get a single
Jamshed Sherzad comes into the attack.

Maximums and plenty of them! This has been a shellacking of some kind that Power CC have been subjected to. 65 runs off the last two overs! Take a deep breath, exhale and then take this stat in because it's real. This one's getting over in a flash!

You are not reading it wrong. It is true - 37 runs have come off that over! Oh if there ever was a set of deliveries to sap the wind out of a team, it came in the form of that over. It's a 20-ball fifty too for Perinpam Yogenthiran. What an onslaught this has been! Can Power CC recover from that at all?
