What an unbelievable chase from the Austrian Cricket Tigers! They've gotten home comfortably in the end and this has been a clinical batting effort. They started off with a flyer as Mirza Ahsan went berserk in the powerplay.
They were ahead of the rate in the early stages of the game but they did slow down a bit in the middle overs! Towards the back end however, it was Umar Tariq who held on his nerve and played an outstanding cameo of 28 from just 12 balls.
The Indian CC Vienna bowlers just didn't have enough gas in the tank and they will be disappointed as they've lost a game that they should have won, The dropped chances cost them big time, especially the one of Kunal Joshi's bowling at the back end.
However, it turned the game around on it's head as Umar Tariq went bang bang from there and won the game in a jiffy. Overall, it's been a dominating victory for the ACT and they end the day on a high.

8.3 Ahmad Ghani to Umair Tariq, FOUR MORE! AUSTRIAN CRICKET TIGERS WIN THIS GAME! Full toss on middle and leg. All Tariq has to do is help it around the corner and he does that quite comfortably for a boundary past square leg!
8.2 Ahmad Ghani to Umair Tariq, FOUR! SHOT! Fullish on off and middle. Tariq plays the helicopter shot and sends it wide of the fielder at long on for a boundary! Just four runs needed now!
8.1 Ahmad Ghani to Aqib Iqbal, fullish down the legside. Iqbal flicks it away uppishly past square leg. Single taken.
Ahmad Ghani [1.0-0-12-0] comes back into the attack.
Heart break for Joshi in that over as Iqbal was dropped at cover! It cost them dearly at end of the over as it ended with a six and now the equation is within touching distance as ACT have got to 100 now.
