The Warriors have put up a really disappointing batting effort and they've been handed a crushing defeat by the St Oliver Split. They couldn't even get past the 60 mark in their 10 overs and lost by a big margin of 34 runs in the end.
There were only three boundaries in the entire innings and that highlights how the Warriors have been suffering from the batting woes in this tournament. Only Birendra Singh got into double figures as the rest of the batters struggled to get going and surrendered meakly in front of the quality bowling of the St Oliver Split.
Chetan Attri was the pick of the bowlers and he ran through the middle order of the Warriors in his three over spell as he picked up three wickets in it. Frane Jandrek and Kartik Gupta also picked up a wicket each while there were as many as four run outs in the innings, signifying how poor the running between the wickets had been.
