Meanwhile, after Porel’s wicket, KL Rahul led the charge, chipping in with a valuable 57*, anchoring the innings and ensuring there were no hiccups along the way. He was well supported by skipper Axar Patel, who added a crucial 34* runs as DC finished at 161/2, wrapping up the chase with ease.
Earlier, after being asked to bat, LSG managed to post 159/6 in 20 overs. Their innings was led by their openers, Mitchell Marsh and Aiden Markram, who showed their class with crucial contributions at the top. Both slammed 45 and 52, respectively, to take the side to a valuable total. However, the rest of the LSG’s batting lineup failed to build on the strong start, as DC’s bowlers tightened the screws, restricting LSG to a manageable total.
