Rob Quiney and Colin de Grandhomme were the only two batsmen to cross double-figures, but they made the most of an unfortunate situation with dual fifties.
Auckland Aces finished with an impressive 171 due to Quiney's 49-ball 66 and de Grandhomme's 49-ball 74. The two added a 122-run stand for the 3rd-wicket.
Alasdair Evans and Gordon Drummond bagged 2 wickets apiece with Drummond being the more economical of the two as Evans conceded 35 runs in his full four.
Ross Lyons conceded as many runs in his four, but he could only manage one wicket. But that was the breakthrough that ended the Quiney-de Grandhomme stand.

Can you believe it? CCC goes from 155/5 to 163 all out. With 17 runs needed from 24 balls, CCC botch what could've been the most famous upset in CL history.
A collapse like never before. Carlton made an absolute mess of that by losing 5 wickets for 8 runs as Auckland Aces manage to save face from a definite loss.
The man that triggered this collapse was Daryl Tuffey - delivering a 3-wicket 17th over which also brought an end to Fraser Watts' incredible 40-ball 70-run knock.
6 runs still came off that 3-wicket over, leaving CCC with the ask of 11 runs from 18 balls with 2 wickets still remaining. Unfortunately their tail couldn't pull it off.
Michael Bates bowled the next i.e. 18th over, which ended up being the last over of the game as Bates took the remaining two wickets to secure a heist of a win.
Watts' knock went in vain as Auckland managed to somehow salvage a win from a loss as CCC bungled-up so badly they couldn't score 17 runs from 24 balls.

What an incredible way to make a comeback into the XI - Subramaniam Badrinath stars for Chennai Super Kings with an unbeaten knock of 72 from 48 deliveries.
Rajshahi Rangers' leading wicket-taker in the National Cricket League Twenty20 - Muktar Ali was the unlikely star for his team with 3 scalps for 31 runs in 4.0 overs.
Murali Vijay scored a fifty at the top to provide a solid base to CSK for an impressive score, but their middle-order underdelivering hindered all chances of that.
Rajshahi Rangers' bowlers were effective for the most part barring Sohrawordi Shuvo going for 11-an over, but lack of wickets made it hard for them to contain CSK.

Muttiah Muralitharan and Ravichandran Ashwin spun a web 'round Rajshahi to deliver CSK their first win of the season and save them from a direct elimination.
After being reduced to 40/4, Khaled Mashud and Naeem Islam rescued their team and gave them a fighting chance. But when Mashud lost his wicket it was over.
Albie Morkel provided the breakthrough, and it was all downhill for Rajshahi. The required run rate had already started to creep up at that point to 14-an over.
Chennai Super Kings registered a win to leave Pool A wide open. A defeat from Rajshahi Rangers to Hampshire Royals would bring net-run-rate into the equation.

Excellent fifty by Daniel Harris top-score's for Southern Redbacks as they amount a massive 172-run total against Lahore Lions in their first game of the season.
Cameron Borgas' 36-ball 41 is highly noteworthy as it held the fort for Harris' brilliance. Kieron Pollard and Aiden Blizzard lit up the Redbacks with thunderous cameos.
Raza Ali Dar and Aizaz Cheema claimed two wickets apiece, but they were both on the expensive side. Ali Dar conceded 10-an-over while Cheema was just shy of it.
An economical 4-over spell by Shabbir Ahmed was the highlight for Lahore Lions, the lowlight was Abdul Razzaq going wicketless and Wahab Riaz claiming only one.

Nathan Lyon spun a web and starred with the ball for his 4-fer as the Southern Redbacks hand Lahore Lions a hefty 38-run defeat in their first game of the season.
Lahore lost Ahmed Shehzad on the first ball and were put on the back foot immediately. Mohammad Yousuf and Umar Akmal were dismissed cheaply, shortly afterwards.
At 21/3, Nasir Jamshed lashed out at the Redbacks, scoring 23 runs in a jiffy before ultimately being dismissed. His dismissal coincided with Lahore's collapse.
Abdul Razzaq and Adnan Akmal had a short stay at the crease as well. Lahore were reduced to 44/6. The game was seemingly done and dusted barring any miracle.
While Raza Ali Dar and Wahab Riaz led a counterattack and brought their team back, their valiant efforts were never going to be enough against Redbacks' prowess.
In the end, Lyons' 4-fer and Shaun Tait's excellent 2/19 starred as the Redbacks outplayed the Lions to register a convincing 38-run victory to kickoff their season.
