Again we won the toss and decided to field because the outfield and mat were both wet.
We did not start well with the bowling with Sampath's swing costing him a few wides.
Then, Gopal started pinch-hitting and hit Amit for a few in his first over. They reached 75 odd in the first 10 with no wickets lost.
The second half, we clawed back with Rahul and Bhoopati taking key wickets of Hafeez and Ashraf.
Gopal was runout by a direct hit from SidK. Then, Anees and others could not force the runrate and they posted only 127.
We lost 4-5 quick wickets initially and were in direstraits. SidK and Ram put on a partnership and steadied things. We were 63 after 10 overs. Sidk chased a wide ball soon after and was out for 34.
Still needing 60 odd, Moghe played well and took us within reach. We folded for 111 with 2 overs to spare.
