Match Details
2:30 AM IST | Ovaise: Derbyshire have won the match with 9 wickets (DLS Method).
Right then, let's have a recap. Derbyshire won the toss and opted to chase first, the toss was delayed by 2 hours and the match was reduced to 8 overs aside. Yorkshire got off to a disastrous start losing Adam Lyth and Shadab Khan very early. Dawid Malan and David Willey got together and stitched up a brilliant partnership and took Yorkshire past the 50 runs mark, Malan was the star with the bat in hand, Willey tried hard but couldn’t score as many runs as he would have thought of before getting out in the middle to bat. Yorkshire ended with 83 in the allotted 8 overs.
Shan Masood walked out to open the batting along with Luis Reece, the latter was dismissed due to a mix up in the middle!! Wayne Madsen joined Shan Masood and the pair together very solid out in the middle and matched each other shot for shot. Yorkshire bowlers were all over the pace and didn’t execute their plans well. Shadab Khan was got into the attack very late, when Yorkshire required only 14 of the 12, he was not successful in getting the breakthrough but bowled a magnificent over and kept the run-scoring down. 8 runs were required of the last over and Wayne Madsen finishes the match in style, by hitting a six off a reverse sweep and taking a single of the next delivery, 1 run was required of the last 4 deliveries and Shan Masood hit the winning runs and full credit to the Falcons who were in full control of this game right from ball 1 when Hayden Kerr picked Lyth on the first delivery of the match.
