Semifinal No. 2 Acid vs Rizzy
Imran won the Toss , and chose as is customary to send myself in . He had me in all sorts of troubles with Slow Ball Yorkers doing the trick to account for the top 4. Hashim Amla was the only top order Batsmen that could weather the storm , and batted brilliantly throughout the innings.
As soon as the rest of the batsmen made the adjustment , things started to slowly look better , until I scrapped to a decent score.

Rizzyx was a bit worried about the score , but myself knew it was well within his reach as the last 4 meetings between us were all won by Imran , chasing similiar totals. He started of Solidly , with his Captain Saeed Anwar leading the way at a blistering pace with some streaky shots just out of reach of the fielders. But as soon as he lost his wicket going for yet another lofted shot over Mid On , things started to slow down for Lahore. When Dhaka turned to Spin only , the wickets seemed to start falling every couple of overs , and the pressure started mounting . Eventually it seemed to all become to much for Lahore , and they melted under the heat. What an enjoyable match , with the game swinging 4 times between the two players .
