| DIVISION B SEMI FINAL PREVIEW – CHICHA vs. FORTUNES 29th July 2008 @ AIT | updated June 25, 2008 |
And then there were three…. an intense match between Champions and Bangkok 11, in which the later edged home by only 3 runs. Champions falling agonizingly short of a semi final berth by 1.28 points, somewhere down the line they must be kicking themselves in the backside for incurring a 3 points penalty. With that win, Bangkok 11 qualified for the finals to be held on the 13th of July 2008 at AIT. The season is guaranteed to end on a very exciting note. With things spicing up, semi final between Chicha CC and Fortune CC is definitely not going to be for the faint of hearts. As the reigning champions Fortunes CC, find themselves taking the long way to glory yet again, are no stranger to the route and their opponents. This is a semi final rematch from the last season. Chicha would be eager to cut Fortunes progress short this time around and book themselves a spot in the finals. Match Form (Last 5 Matches): Chicha: WLTLL Fortunes: WWTTW Players to Watch: Mansoor Ali (Chicha) – The only centurion this season, Mansoor is leading the runs galore for Chicha and tops the batting averages for this season as well. Chicha would like him to be in a top notch form. Kenta Mehta (Fortunes) - Right behind Mansoor on the batting charts is fortunes very own Mr. Consistent, Ketan. Unlike his Chicha counterpart Ketan makes up for the lack of flamboyance with a steady, controlled pace to his innings. He would do well to get to cross 50 having fallen short before. | |
