Even before we had embarked on the qualifiers and eliminator of the current instalment of the Shpageeza Cricket League, Mis Ainak Knights and Ban-e-Amir Dragons had stamped their authority all over the marquee league. The two sides had entered as the top two placed sides in the league stages, two teams who befittingly find themselves plying their skill set in the prestigious summit clash today.
Playing against each other in the first qualifier, Mis Ainak Knights had emerged as winners in that prevelant clash. It was not just a win but a completely dominant and thumping one as they galloped their way into today’s final by sweeping past Band-e-Amir Dragons by 7 wickets as they made light work of their run chase, one fully deservingly of a side who sat atop of the league stages.
Elsewhere, after being routed in that encounter, Band-e-Amir Dragons finally crafted out the win they ardently craved for yesterday as they got the better of Kabul Eagles in the Eliminator. In what a runs galore extradonaire encounter, they ended up hanging onto a win by the smallest of threads, a three run win to find themselves prevail winners and make their way into the summit clash.
Now looking to avenge their trouncing by Mis Ainak Knights previously, Band-e-Amir Dragons know they won’t get as fortunate as they got on Thursday against Kabul Eagles. This is a massively more well-versed and staunch side, a unit which has not shown any weaknesses as of now, a unit which enter the bedlam of the summit clash in the wake of enigmatic and euphoria filled displays.
Pitch Conditions And Toss
The wicket broke off under the brunt of hectic cricket in the middle part of the league but with the matches taking a break and the ground team getting time to address the wicket, the surface has returned to its batting conducive ways. The pitch should slightly start regressing though in the second part with the rank turners getting immense spin, leading the side winning the toss opting to bat first.
