Kumar Vishal Trophy FINAL 1 of 3 - The Avengers vs Bad Boys @ The Floating Marvel

Conceded little more than we hoped, but the target is still very much chasable. Glad we decided to give Brookes a bowl because I really did leak runs. We bat deep, so hopefully we can chase this down

Yes for sure we bat deep. We nearly pulled off that 320 chase against The Wild Force at Wild Park and chased down 330-odd against Royal Mavericks. Also Bad Boys escaped a loss in the very first match itself.

I feel it's our match to lose now and I would be disappointed if we don't win this.

Big game, big situation, playing against the table-toppers at their backyard and still - Parth K delivered a hundred at the top of the order and very nearly, carried his bat.

Bad Boys will be mighty disappointed with the last 10.0 overs of their innings. Credit where credit is due - The Avengers bowled fantastically with the new and the old ball.
However, a failure to find timely intervals in the middle-overs - all due to how stern Parth K's knock up-top was, deflated The Avengers and gave Bad Boys 289 to defend.

Nilay Shah worked magic with the older ball, swinging it both ways and being able to find two crucial breathers that stunted, what could've been a fiery finish for Bad Boys.
For a top-order batsman to score 148 in an all-important final, whilst facing the first ball of the innings, as well as the last - outlines perfectly how great Parth K was today.

10 off the over! Can Ahmed Leo, somehow, take The Avengers home? Can Nilay Shah provide him with the support that their middle-order couldn't? Seems like a dream...

Hindsight being King - everyone including Bad Boys' lambasted Lalit Modi for his snail-like innings - but my oh my, did that turn out to be the difference maker in the end.
Ahmed Leo was on his way to imitating the feat Parth K achieved with his brilliance up-top - the only difference being was the lack of support Ahmed had compared to Parth.

If Parth K hadn't found Lalit Modi (and Chris Swift) as his partner - perhaps Bad Boys would've crumbled the same way The Avengers did despite a top-order knock like his?
Franklin Jacob worked absolute magic with the ball - claiming 4 crucial wickets. The Avengers will be mighty deflated with what they've put on show - a 130-run debacle.

One of those days where you look back and just have a big grin on your face :D

Possibly our worst days but we as a side believe that we can bounce back. On to the next one boys!
 
Need a total reset.
