Not the best of outings by Donald Trump, who seems to be too embarrassed in facing his own dressing room ...

THE ROYAL MAVERICKS BOWLING SCORECARD

And so the game draws to a tame conclusion with The Avengers claiming an impressive victory by 4 wickets. A solid, if unspectacular performance there by The Avengers and they will no doubt want to build on the foundation laid today. The bowlers were probably licking their lips when they saw the pitch today - the pitch was very sporting, to say the least. All of the disciplines benefited greatly throughout the day. These two teams were fairly evenly matched so it was tough to predict the outcome. That being said The Avengers proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory. MATCH NOTES ----------- The Avengers wins by 4 wickets MoM: T Hayat The Royal Mavericks 152/5 20 overs The Avengers 153/6 19.2 overs

A superb way to begin the league. Though a bit nervy at some moments. But that is the nature of T20. Pretty happy to be on the winning side.

Opening jodi is the MVP partnership for us.

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

Hulk is definitely on our radar!

*sus*

 

[Neptune]

Was going through this scorecard after our R2 loss and saw that we gave 6 runs or less in 9/20 overs we bowled which is excellent defensive bowling. Lets hope that we can repeat that in Round 3

 

[ddrap14]

A good day out, like our next game will be

 

[NILAYSHAH60]

Royal Mavericks weren't up to the mark in the first innings, but their bowlers did a great job in the second.

It was a close match... As I earlier expected it to be... Congrats to Avengers, and Best of luck to the RMs...

Without your bowling it wouldn't have been possible. More such spells expected from you in coming matches.

 

[Yash.]

That's what you get for not playing me

 

[Sami Kumar]

Hope we can keep up the good run for the upcoming matches! Haway the Avengers!

 

[An'artist]

I'm the average guy who love the avengers

 

[Yash.]

Talha's inning pretty much sealed the deal there in this match. Considering that the overall totals were low, he played a blinder.

Noticing now, we did lose to the Avengers in all three formats

 

[GuyIncognito]

Damn those handsome Avengers.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Prabhul KV bowled well though.
