Victoria showed another sub-par batting performance as they were dismissed for 240. Only Hashim Amla (51) and BJ Watling could play against a bowling lineup led by Devendra Bishoo and Dale Steyn. BJ Watling played really well for his 71. London had to chase 133 in the 2nd Innings.
London Lions need 133 runs to win.

133 was never going to be a big target to defend for the bowlers of Victoria Bushrangers. Stiaan van Zyl (47) laid the foundation while Quinton de Kock came and finished the game in a canter. Steven Smith was once again awarded the man of the match.

The Melbourne Thunder innings was a show of two batsmen - AB de Villiers & Angelo Mathews. They both struck together a 168 run partnership and took their team out of danger after they were reduced to 35/3. Unluckily, both of them got out on 99. Chris Woakes was the star in the bowling as he took 3 wickets.

Multiply Titans played really well with 6 batsmen scoring fifties. Contributions from David Warner (53), Martin Guptill (72), Alaistar Cook (66) and Ajinkya Rahane (46) laid a good foundation which was later carried forward by captain, Ashwin (53) and Wrridhiman Saha (56). The Titans made 438.

Chris Woakes' smart bowling helped the Titans to dismiss the home team for 324 runs. The Thunder openers started well but after they fell, there were no large partnerships. The partnership of 77 betwenn Mohommad Amir and Mohommad Shami took them to a respectable total.
Multiply Titans need 208 runs to win.

I don't know what is with left handed openers and 4th innings in the PC First Class World series. Last season, it was Dean Elgar who played the role of a chase master, this season I feel it would be David Warner. Much like the last match, he made 74 runs and with help from Ajinkya Rahane (66), guided the away team to victory.

That was not a good performance. Both batsmen out for 99 ? How unlucky is that ? Hope we come back good for the next game.

The Openers of RCB laid a great foundation with a 141 run partnership. Dimuth Karunaratne (84) and Stephen Cook (61) played the bowling of Starc and Broad really well. But after their wickets, no one could really get settled. Asad Shafiq proved, after all that he was human as he got out for just 4. RCB were bowled out for 266. Mitchell Starc and Mustafizur Rahman took 3 wickets each.

Stuart-Broad-of-England-celebrates-the-wicket-of-Chris-Rogers.jpg

Stuart Broad storm struck RCB. He took 4 wickets and broke the back of RCB batting. Still, he couldn't stop the top scorer, Asad Shafiq from making another fifty. Gary Ballance and Naman Ojha contributed with fifties but none of them could get that big hundered that could take RCB to a large total.
Kolkata Knight Riders need 253 runs to win.

Both batsmen out for 99 ?
That has been unusual... We have seen 5 batsmen being out for 99 this season. In just 4 rounds...
