Match Over
LSG 141/10 (18.4 ov)
DC won by 6 wickets
LSG fought, but 141 all out tells you the bowlers won this phase. What started with promise ended with a collapse. Samad's 36 off 25 (SR 144) was the innings that held everything together, with Marsh (35 off 28) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Ngidi (3/27 in 3.4 ov), Natarajan (3/29 in 4 ov), Yadav (2/31 in 4 ov) all contributed. The death overs were the story — 4 wickets fell as LSG tried to accelerate, and what looked like 161+ became 141. DC need 142 to win. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.

LSG 141/10 (18.4 ov)
DC won by 6 wickets
LSG fought, but 141 all out tells you the bowlers won this phase. What started with promise ended with a collapse. Samad's 36 off 25 (SR 144) was the innings that held everything together, with Marsh (35 off 28) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Ngidi (3/27 in 3.4 ov), Natarajan (3/29 in 4 ov), Yadav (2/31 in 4 ov) all contributed. The death overs were the story — 4 wickets fell as LSG tried to accelerate, and what looked like 161+ became 141. DC need 142 to win. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.
