The Terra Novas beat the Shamrocks by 10 runs in the A league match, which was followed by a 12 over B team game.
A match scorecard (Note that there are a couple of names switched – Bharat played, not Shameem, and Saqib played, not Shaifan). Man of the match Rahul Vashisht led the way for the Terra Novas with an excellent 68 (which would have been much higher on an outfield that was cut to a normal level). After the Terra Novas had lost a couple of early wickets, he and Bharat scored rapidly, Bharat hitting a couple of massive sixes.
After Bharat was bowled, Vashisht opened up, hitting six sixes. Sarawak Kumar bowled outstandingly (4-1-4-3) in the middle overs and also dismissed Vashisht with an excellent one handed catch.
Vashisht also bowled well when the Shamrocks batted, and despite no Shamrocks bat ever really getting in, the match was close thanks to 30 wides. Nadeem took two wickets, and the Shamrocks were unable to find the boundary when they needed to. Some strong fielding punished some overly ambitious running with three run outs, and the Shamrocks fell 10 runs short.
