New York Strikers beat Delhi Bulls by 7 wickets
Kieron Pollard is given the Player of the Match award for his scintillating cameo. That's all we have from this thriller. But don't go anywhere as the second match of the evening, involving Team Abu Dhabi and Bangla Tigers, is about to begin in a short while. Please switch tabs and join us for all the updates. Cheers!
Azam Khan comes for a flash interview. Says that it was a great effort from the team and is happy that they are at the top of the table. Adds that it's the shorter format and you have to be on your toes. He is glad that they are winning and is looking forward to the next game. Feels that the momentum keeps going on and they are backing all the players. Praises his skipper as well and tells that they are ready for the next stage.
Earlier in the match, the batting of Delhi Bulls was all about Tom Banton, who received a couple of lives. He made 46, and the Bulls' innings revolved around him. With the ball, the Bulls bowled with discipline and maintained the upper hand but towards the end, they fell at the wrong side of Kieron Pollard.
Chasing a stiff target, the Strikers lost a couple of wickets inside the Powerplay and it took them some time to recover. Eoin Morgan and Azam Khan led the rescue act with their partnership but they found it tough to bat with fluency. With every passing over, the required rate kept on mounting and eventually, Morgan got out in an attempt to up the scoring ante. Kieron Pollard arrived at the crease with 40 needed off 15 balls and the rest as they say is history.
Absolute thriller and Kieron Pollard has done it! The 'Man Mountain' showed that the fire is still burning and his power game is still going strong. He took on his best friend in the final over and hammered the required runs with two balls to spare. KP has sent the fans into delirium. Courtesy of this win, the New York Strikers have jumped to the top of the table while Delhi Bulls are officially knocked out now.
