Hits and misses.

The Northern Nawabs started the tournament on a positive foot. In their match against Western Warriors, the Nawabs showcased some extraordinary cricketing talent. The Warriors decided to bat first after winning the toss on what seemed to be a good wicket to bat. Though the first over saw the Nawabs conceding many extras in form of wides, but a exemplary bowling performance by Wangchen(3 wickets, 1 maiden) helped the Nawabs to restrict the Warriors to a small but defendable score of 84. Though the Nawabs had a slow start, they did not lose any wickets which created a good platform for the middle order to come and play their natural game. A blazing innings was played by Animesh(an innings of 50. studded with sixes and fours), which helped the Nawabs win the Match by 7 wickets in hand and six balls to spare, and thereby qualifying to the semifinals. The Warriors who showed quite low level of cricket left the Nawabs appalled.

In the other match against the Eastern Immortals, the Nawabs realised the undercurrents that were flowing amongst the commoners and decided to let the Immortals win the match easily. The Nawabs experimented as they wanted to give their players a good match practice. The tired Nawab side scored a total of 44, which seemed low but yet the Nawabs did not want to leave the field without giving a fight. But the light and tiredness affected the Nawabs fielding as they dropped many catches and were very sorry about he fact that they set such bad example to the commoners who were there, to learn from the Nawabs. The Nawabs apologizes to all its supporters and other commoners for letting them down.

Tomorrow the Nawabs may be playing the Eastern Immortals again, and this time round they would give in their best and try to regain their supreme position. The Nawabs welcome all its supporters and other commoners to come and watch a great game of cricket.
