That's it for this riveting contest, folks! Hope you enjoyed the coverage. This is Rudransh and Pradeep signing off for Sportskeeda!
ALL OVERRRR! ITALY DEFEND A SUB-PAR SCORE BY JUST FOUR RUNS IN BRILLIANT FASHION TO REACH THE GROUP C FINAL!
Joy Perera 52 (24) | Jaspreet Singh (3/21) Lucky Malik 65 (24) | Delawar Khan (2/21)
Remember the stunning save from Shangeev in the first innings to save five runs? Well that has just proven to be difference in this match. It was that close. Italy have won this after being 4/3 in the first over, their lower order batting and now bowling really, really turned up today.
Denmark, unlike Italy, got off to a great start with 14 runs without any wickets lost in the first over. Italian shoulders looked down already but Jaspreet Singh led the early spark by getting both openers out, even as Lucky Malik began an assault on the other end.
But as the match progressed, Lucky soon became the lone fighter. Wickets continued to fall thick and fast from the other end as Italy picked up great catches and made up for their poor drops with tight bowling. Lucky finally crumbled to the pressure on the last ball of the ninth over and his successors just didn't have enough steam to take the team through.

9.6 Amir Sharif to Jonas Henriksen, THAT IS IT! Italy storm into the finals of Group C. Big hit came down late for Denmark, needed that much earlier. Back of a length delivery on the stumps, Henriksen hangs back and pummeled it way over deep square-leg for a maximum.
9.5 Amir Sharif to Saud Munir, OH! Length delivery on the off-stump, Munir drilled it down to long-off for just one. That should be it for Italy, unless Sharif goes wayward with the front foot or line.
Saud Munir, RHB, comes to the crease
12 off 2 needed now!
9.4 Amir Sharif to Abdullah Mahmood, OUT! LOUD SHOUT FOR LBW, UP GOES THE FINGER! Italy celebrate and they just know why. Full and tailed back in on the stumps. Abdullah misses the whip and it raps on the pad, would've been crashing into leg-stump.
Abdullah Mahmood lbw b Amir Sharif 0 (1b, 0x4, 0x6)
9.3 Amir Sharif to Jonas Henriksen, OH! Top delivery from Amir, nails the yorker on the off-stump and Henriksen drilled it down to long-on for just one.
9.2 Amir Sharif to Jonas Henriksen, OH! Misses out, it's a dot ball. Pace off, short and outside the off-stump. Henriksen can't make the pivotal connection as he has a big swing and a miss.
