Playing what may very well be his last ELA match (he will be 41 or older by the time of the next season, should there be one), Kumar Sangakkara finally broke the hoodoo that had seen him go century-less in the league since it's inception despite a very good batting record. He finished unbeaten on 123 off 113 balls to put his team in a very strong position with a total of 295 from their 50 overs. His team-mate Kevin Pietersen, also set to retire at the end of this match dazzled briefly with an entertaining 42 off 40 balls before falling lbw to Nathan Coulter-Nile just eight short of a half-century in his final innings.

Jasprit Bumrah finally delivered with a performance on par with his reputation as one of the best bowlers in limited overs cricket in the present day. He picked 4 for 56 including the wickets of his Indian skipper Virat Kohli, former skipper MS Dhoni, Ben Stokes and Nathan Coulter-Nile whilst being quite ably supported by Australia's latest pace sensation in Jhye Richardson. The Hobart Tigers bowed out of a disappointing season by recording a 7-run victory over the defending champions Sydney, whose qualification hopes just took a dent as a result of this defeat. They're not completely out of the race just yet, but their qualification for the semi-final will now depend on the results of the next two matches where they'll need Adelaide to beat WCF and Melbourne to beat Queensland.

The Hobart Tigers managed to send off Kevin Pietersen and quite possibly Kumar Sangakkara too with a victory. Pietersen finished his ELA career with 1215 runs at 35.74 from 35 matches including a highest of 86 which he recorded earlier in the season. Sangakkara on the other hand finished with a much more impressive 1614 runs at 47.47 from 40 matches with a highest of 123* in what his almost certain to be his final ELA match.

Hashim Amla and Matt Renshaw blunted Queensland's strong pace attack with a very impressive 159-run partnership for the 1st wicket. Though no one else in the lineup could score more than 32, Melbourne ended up posting a pretty good total of 291 which isn't the easiest to chase at this venue. Trent Boult starred with the ball for Queensland, claiming 4 for 47 off his 10 overs while the rest of the bowling attack put together managed just 3 wickets between themselves.

Despite getting off to a good start courtesy of Chris Gayle and Michael Klinger, Queensland crumbled to 229 all out as the rest of their batting lineup folded under the pressure of chasing under lights in this must win game. They were knocked out of the season as a result, marking the first occasion of them not qualifying for the final since Season II. Melbourne were through to the semi-final as a result of this victory. Their opponents will be determined in the next match between Adelaide and WCF; a win for Adelaide would result in Sydney qualifying, while a win for WCF will put the latter through.

This was the end of the road for Adam Voges, the third highest run-scorer in ELA history prior to the start of this season. He endured a miserable final campaign which saw him record only 78 runs at an average of 15.60 from 6 innings, which included a first-ball duck in his final match. He ended a 43-match ELA career with 1506 runs coming at an average of 40.70 and remains Queensland's second highest run-scorer till date behind only Michael Klinger.

Following Aaron Finch and Shikhar Dhawan's ballistic approach at the top of the order, Faf du Plessis kept his cool with a patient 41 off 70 balls to see Adelaide through to another victory - their seventh from ten matches. Things got a little closer than expected with WCF inducing a few middle-order hiccups, but they never really had enough runs on the board to make this deep Adelaide batting lineup sweat. Adelaide were already through to the final as of the previous round, but this victory also ensured Sydney's qualification at the expense of WCF for the semi-final where they will face an in-form Melbourne outfit. It was the end of the road for two-time champions WCF as far as Season VII is concerned.

Well it is never good when you want two results to go your way to progress further but it has happened and we are in the semis somehow and that is what matters! Just two good games now and the title is ours. The balance of the team is still not the way I wanted it after the league stages. We still do not know our best combination which is sad but if we play to our potential we can definitely do it. Let's see how it goes, we are ready for Melbourne. Come on boys!

 

[Perfect Square]

Good to see back to back wins. But sadly our qualifying chances are almost dead.

 

[Yash.]

A win over possibly the strongest batting lineup! Great match for our legends, Sanga and KP

 

[CerealKiller]

Awesome bowling performance. Qieensland gave us a big gift with those 36 extras

Explanation on pitch types

Dusty - Plenty of turn on offer for spinners and a good place to bat for spin-savvy batsmen. Good pace bowlers are still likely to thrive.
Evenly balanced - Provides an evenly balanced contest for all disciplines.
Flat - A batsman-friendly pitch which provides little or no assistance to bowlers. Expect big totals.
Green - A lot of movement on offer, which makes it ideal for bowlers capable of swinging the ball. Quite regular to find in most European countries.
Hard - Ideal conditions for batting. Good deal of bounce on offer for fast bowlers as well. Could go either way.
Dry/Slow - Ideal for slow and spin bowlers as the name suggests. Sometimes quite difficult to bat on.​

Man, I feel we came a long way considering our squad on-paper. I do think we could've come further if we hadn't lost a couple of close games that we did.

Thanks for the fun league, VC. And thanks for being an awesome co-manager, @Rabbit Hood.

 

[Aislabie]

Bloody hell - I've left my team unattended for a long time but they seem to be doing rather well. Hopefully someone manages to break our century drought in the final.
