Kolachi wins by 3 wickets

And so the game draws to a tame conclusion with Kolachi claiming an impressive victory by 3 wickets. A solid, if unspectacular performance there by Kolachi 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. Oh dear - if you're a Mumbai Indians supporter, I'm afraid the scorecard makes for pretty poor reading. Kolachi simply showed more hunger for the win today and they will deservedly take all the accolades for the performance they put in.

Ghostbusters wins by 3 wickets

And so the game draws to a tame conclusion with Ghostbusters claiming an impressive victory by 3 wickets. A solid, if unspectacular performance there by Ghostbusters 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 Ghostbusters proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory.

Would you believe it. Mitchell Starc provided dream start to his team by removing AB de Villiers and Chris Lynn that too on ducks! But unfortunately except for Starc none of Beat Busters bowlers could stop the flow of runs as Shoaib Malik brought all of his experience and scored 31 of just 9 balls. Thanks to Marsh and Head the target was achieved with even 6 balls to spare...

Diamond Eagles wins by 1 runs

What a finish! A nail-biter to the very end. Well played to both teams, but in the end, there can be only one winner. Diamond Eagles will breathe a sigh of relief after today's match and will be hoping to be more authoritative in the next one. 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 Diamond Eagles proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory.

It was a nail bitter! Pitch was supporting bowlers and Diamond Eagles bowlers used it very well. SRH batsmen weren't able to free there hands, even David Warner. Until the 2nd last over of Krunal Pandya of which David Warner scored 19 runs and only 6 was needed of the last over, but something happened! Corey Anderson was on strike and stuck the 1st bowl of Stoinis for four before getting out a couple of balls later. Still 3 was needed of 3 balls. But the worrying sign was that David Warner was at the non-striker end. While Bumrah carried the bat. He wasted 2 balls afterwards and 3 was needed of 1 ball and Marcus Stoinis the hero of the match won the game for Diamond Eagles as Bumrah could only score 1 of last ball...

	The new bowler is @Mitchell McClenaghan.
2.1	@Mitchell McClenaghan to @Kevin Pietersen, WIDE, The bowler loses his line and pushes this down the leg side. M McClenaghan is very luck to get away with just the wide

2.2	@Mitchell McClenaghan to @Kevin Pietersen, 6, 126.55kph, No great pace there from M McClenaghan and he maintains a tight line just outside off. That sped away like a tracer bullet. Fantastic drive. That is a monstrous hit! SIX
2.3	@Mitchell McClenaghan to @Kevin Pietersen, dot, 126.81kph, This one is military medium from M McClenaghan. That one goes on straight. @Ravindra Jadeja drops a sitter. Not in the gap

3.6	@rohit sharma to @Kevin Pietersen, 6, 70.28kph, full length just outside off stump. Aggressive sweep from K Pietersen. An audacious shot from K Pietersen. Six runs

Codex wins by 4 wickets

And so the game draws to a tame conclusion with Codex claiming an impressive victory by 4 wickets. A solid, if unspectacular performance there by Codex 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 Codex proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory.

MATCH NOTES

Chennai Twisters 69/3 5 overs

MS Dhoni 33 (12)

Ravindra Jadeja 17* (7)

Rohit Sharma 7 (4)

Sohail Tanvir 1 / 11

Rashid Khan 1 / 14

Kevin Pietersen 0 / 10

Codex 70/2 4.5 overs

Kevin Pietersen 36 (12)

Evin Lewis 19 (7)

David Willey 12* (9)

Mitchell McClenaghan 0 / 9

Codex started their innings of well with 19 on board in the 1st over. Evin Lewis played well for his 19 but it was Kevin Pietersen yet again who scored 36 in just 12 balls, but had to retire. The good thing was that when we retired only 1 run was needed of the last two balls and Mohmmad Nabi pushed it for a single. Thus, Codex won the match with 1 ball to spare...
