Greece 77/9 (10) beat Bulgaria 71/7 (10) by 6 runs
Well, what has happened there? How have Bulgaria failed to chase this down? The total was well short of par, nearly thirty runs short but somehow, Greece have managed to win this! They continue their unbeaten streak in the tournament on the back of some fantastic bowling!
The powerplay set the tone for Greece, snaring two wickets in the first over! However, there was the threat of some of the batters going big which was negotiated by the spinners, who bowled economically while also ensuring that they registered a few wickets for themselves.
Some explosive batting in the death by Danyal Ali did not prove to be enough as they fall short by just 6 runs. They will rue this opportunity to have gotten a win under their belt. This also ensures that no team can dethrone Greece from the top spot in this league, meaning Greece will be declared the winners of this tournament after the next couple of games. And deservedly so - to come out and defend 78 runs is no mean task but the manner in which they went about their business was fantastic!

9.6 Sinan Khan to Danyal Ali, FOUR! SHOT! Length ball on the pads, Danyal shuffles across and glances that through the fine leg region to collect a boundary. But it will not be enough as they fall short by just 6 runs!
9.5 Sinan Khan to Danyal Ali, SIX! BOOM! Length ball on the leg stump line, Danyal shuffles across and absolutely bludgeons that over the long on region for a huge maximum! Where was this all this while?
9.4 Amarpreet Singh to Danyal Ali, length ball fired in at the pads, Danyal goes for the big hoick across the line but fails to make any connection.
9.3 Amarpreet Singh to Danyal Ali, length ball on the body, Danyal whips that through the mid-wicket region and the batters run a couple of runs.
9.2 Amarpreet Singh to Danyal Ali, SIX! BOOM! Length ball on the off stump line, Danyal shuffles across and absolutely thumps that straight back down the ground for a huge maximum! That's the first one that they needed!
9.1 Sinan Khan to Danyal Ali, FOUR! SHOT! Length ball on the middle stump line, Danyal looks to work it away but gets the leading edge through the backward point region for a boundary!
9.1 Sinan Khan to Danyal Ali, WIDE! Sprayed down the leg side and it will be a wide.
