Match Report 29 Jul 11: Crni Zmajevi Cricket Club vs. Lahore Kings 11 [one day 3.1]

We were looking forward to this game, the Kings had beaten us twice in the past season, so it was payback time. They looked out of form as well, so everything was set for a successful game for us. Conditions were Dry/Overcast, spinner friendly. Rasmajinan and Holtbacher opened for us, and Holtbacher lost his wicket early in the 7th over. Abolhassan came in, and they've done a wonderful 158 runs partnership with Rasmajinan, both got close to a century. The two player departed in the 36th and 37th over, after that we lost all our remaining wickets so quickly, Rogers departed last at 49.4. Despite that, we had a comfortable 276-10, for the conditions this looked very promising. Bowlers was in form too, Farell took 2 early wickets, and Haider provided his usual magic in the late overs. Rogers sealed the deal at 42.6: Crni Zmajevi Cricket Club won by 70 runs.
Excellent victory:) The Kings rested a lot of players though, they got hit by fatigue very badly. All in all, this was an excellet match for the Dragons, Rasmajinan & Abolhassan did wonders with the bat, and all our bowlers performed quite well. I've played 2 wrist spinners again, and it turned out well [again].
