The final day of the Eastern T20 started with a good win for the provincial team over New Brunswick. After losing an early wicket a 2nd wicket partnership of 46 between Rahul Vashistha (18) and Mesam Timmar (32) set the foundations for a good total. The pitch was not easy, the grass long and the boundaries longer, so they played a controlled game, with excellent placement of shots and running between the wickets. Abhishek Doshi (22) played well in the middle order and the bats worked hard for every run of the 114 final score.
Praveen Manhas and Mesam bowled excellent opening spells, Mesam taking 1/5 and Praveen 2/7 both bowling three overs. Madhu, Rakesh and Rahul kept the pressure on, and when the game was halted for torrential rain, NB were 59/7 from 14.1 overs. NL were declared winners by 32 runs on Duckworth-Lewis, and Masam was named man of the match.
Scorecard
The win qualified NL for the bronze medal game against Quebec Red, but the heavy rain meant that the final matches were cancelled, leaving Quebec Blue as champions, and NL 4th.
