So, that will be it from the semi-finals of ECS Romania, 2023! The next match will be the Bronze Final between Bucharest Gladiators and UNEFS. Do switch tabs and check us out for that one in about an hour from now. This is the pair of Soorya and Bidipto taking your leave. Keep following Sportskeeda!
It was always going to be a tough ask for Bucharest Gladiators and it turned out to be so in the end as they could not get to even 100 runs!
Muhammad Moiz was looking threatening for Cluj but his dismissal in the second over meant that someone else had to carry things forward in exactly that fashion. That unfortunately, did not happen for the Gladiators.
Waqas Ahmed did come out and take on Rajith Perera's left-arm spin but against pace, he looked like a pale shadow of himself with the bat.
Of the five bowlers used, three of them went at well under 8.00 RPO. Only seven runs were given away as extras. On the whole, it was a disciplined bowling and fielding effort from Cluj to make the final yet again!

9.6 Taranjeet Singh to Cosmin Zavoiu, loopy length delivery with plenty of width. Zavoiu chops the ball down to third man before the batters race back for the second. It doesn't matter though - Cluj win by 31 runs and set up the summit clash with Giarmata!
9.5 Taranjeet Singh to Joshak Khadka, back of a length delivery outside the off stump. Khadka hangs back to punch it to extra cover for one
9.4 Taranjeet Singh to Cosmin Zavoiu, short in length on leg stump. Zavoiu walks across looking to help his pull around the corner as it hits the splice and lobs fine for a single
9.3 Taranjeet Singh to Cosmin Zavoiu, AH! Length delivery just outside the off stump as Zavoiu attempts a heave across the line. Just misses the off pole as it beats him to the keeper
9.2 Taranjeet Singh to Cosmin Zavoiu, short outside the off stump with width on offer. Zavoiu attempts a late cut as he reaches for it but can't put bat to ball
Cosmin Zavoiu, RHB, is at the crease.
9.1 Taranjeet Singh to Rasika Mendis, HOLES OUT! Fraction short outside the off stump as Mendis rocks back and mistimes his heave towards long on. Skipper Saini lunges forward in the deep and pulls off a good catch. What a day he's having!
Rasika Mendis c Vasu Saini b Taranjeet Singh 9 (4b, 0x4, 1x6)
