Matches Posted Champions League XX - Round 1 - Triangle Tigers vs Multan Sultans - Just needed a few more runs on the board...

Oh, what a game this has turned out to be. Absolute thriller.

62 off 60 isn't an easy job. They'll have to hit the bad balls hard. Then only they can get to it.

I'm really praying for Basnahira to win. ;)

Kumar Sangakkara was adjudged the MoTM for his blistering knock

Woot! What a win! Completely dominated the rivals. Opening stand was the key there and Paranavithana has been in the form of his life time throughout the tournament. Glad that its my team that has become the first ever winner of CL from SLPL.

Celebrations galore is Bears camp:


Coming back to the league. This was a wonderful experience to interact and play against the teams of much experienced members and play against different oppositions giving tough competition.

Dipak did a fair job as far as presentation, management and ratings are concerned. He was a bit too inactive after posting the first innings of all important final but thats understandable as he "has exams". All in all a great experience.


PS: I'll look to make it to CL again with my very own Bears team and this time try to get some good backups and even better team!

Haari is a good friend. He had a good team too. Honestly at half way stage, I thought its all over for my team as the way they bowled us out in the last league game, they had the definite edge. Also, Gambhir's form was a worry too in absence of Punter. Haari has been a keen follower of Bears since I took up in Season 4 of SLPL especially in the big matches likes semis and final.

He, if was not facing my team would have definitely supported Bears once again.
 
Congratulations Basnahira Bears,It was an awesome match and at the end a well deserved victory for Basnahira Bears:cheers
 
Glad to see teams from Srilanka having the most winning percentage. Shows SLPL teams have done good but just failed to make it big.

Thanks for those stats, Haari. :)
