Milestone
That's the end of our coverage. This is me, Akshay Bhide, signing off on behalf of my co-commentators Ovaise and Ajay Ahire and our scorer Zeeshan Naiyer. Tata. Good Night.
Mushfiqur Rahim: I thought the bowlers restricted the opposition, that was a great effort. There have been a few dropped catches by us, but I am proud of the boys. I really appreciate their effort and for being there on the field for such a long time.
Soumya Sarkar is named Player of the Match
Ravi Bopara | Losing Captain: "It is disappointing to lose. I thought we bowled well and 180 was a below-par total. It was a 200 run wicket but we didn't perform well with the bat. We kept losing wickets and needed something special in the end. The debutant bowled well and we picked early wickets. We will come out tomorrow night and hopefully, finish on the winning side."
Time for the presentation.
Akshay: That’s the end of the game. The Tigers beat the Sunrisers by 15
runs. It went down to the wire and the Sunrisers tried hard in the end but
fell short of the target. The Tigers will breathe a sigh of relief after
getting across the line.
It was always going to be a daunting task for
the Sunrisers to chase down this total. They got off to a steady start and
Simmons was dismissed on the last ball of the powerplay. Anamul Haque was going
strong from the other end but the Tigers’ bowlers bowled brilliantly as the
runs dried up. The Tigers kept picking wickets at regular intervals and
restricted the Sunrisers to 167 to win the game by 15 runs. Alauddin
Babu hit three consecutive sixes in the final over but failed to get his side
across the line.
After electing to bowl first, the Sunrisers got
off to a very good start as they picked up two wickets in the very first over.
Soumya Sarkar was joined by Yasir Ali but the latter departed on the last ball
of the powerplay with 46 on the board. What followed was a batting masterclass
from Sarkar and Mushfiqur Rahim as they put in a solid fourth-wicket stand for
the Tigers.
Both brought up their fifties and started
cutting loose in the slog overs as they powered their side to 182 at the end of
their 20 overs. Sarkar and Rahim remained unbeaten on 82 and 62 as they helped
them put up a total which they defended successfully.

19.6 Rabbi to M Hossain
1 Short and outside off, miss-times it to the covers region for a single and that's it, there was a scare in the beginning of the over, but it was just a way to big a task for any batsmen.
19.5 Rabbi to M Hossain
0 Short and slow, big swing and a miss by Hossain. The dream has ended for the Sylhet team. Fans would be very disappointed. Good cameo by Babu to get them close to the target, will help them in the net-run rate.
19.4 Rabbi to A Babu
1 Missed out on this one, Miss hits this one to long on for a single. Anti-Climax. Oh NO! was in the slot but he misses out on this one.
Akshay: Ohhh my God.. What is going on here?? Babu has hit three consecutive sixes and the Sunrisers need 18 runs from the last 3 balls.
19.3 Rabbi to A Babu
