Time for post match presentation!
Nitish Rana (Losing Captain): Look, all the games we have lost have been closely fought. T20 is about margins.
I know I am a knock away from returning to my full flow. That doesn't happen usually, but that's cricket.
We are not looking too far at the moment. That's what I told the team before the start of this game: we will take one game at a time. I don't know what the equation would be after 3-4 games, so let's see."

23:46 PM IST and Local Time: Ladies and gentlemen, what an absolute nail-biter we've just witnessed here! The Lucknow Falcons have snatched victory from the jaws of defeat, winning by four wickets in a dramatic last-over finish! Let’s dive into this thrilling contest between the Noida Super Kings and the Lucknow Falcons in the UP T20 League!
The Kings set a target of 138, and at first glance, it seemed like it might just be enough to keep the Falcons at bay. But oh no, this was a game destined for the history books!
Starting the chase, Harsh Tyagi opened the innings with a cautious 16 off 15 balls, laying down the foundation. But then, Priyam Garg stepped in, playing a crucial knock of 34 from 28 deliveries, steadying the ship when the pressure was mounting. The crowd could hardly breathe as Akshu Bajwa joined the party, chipping in with a well-crafted 21 off 18 balls. It was anyone's game at this point!
But the real drama unfolded in the final overs. Sameer Chaudhary, with nerves of steel, anchored the innings with a vital 35* off 26 balls. And just when the tension hit fever pitch, Parv Singh came in with a late cameo, smashing 14* off 10 deliveries—each shot echoing like a cannonball in the stadium!
On the bowling front, the Noida Super Kings fought valiantly. Kunal Taggi, the impact player, struck early with a wicket and was well supported by Ajay Kumar, Prashant Veer, Piyush Chawla, Naman Tiwari, and Mohammad Sharim—all grabbing one wicket each. But alas, their efforts weren’t enough to seal the deal.
Had the Kings put up 160 or 170 on the board, the story might have been different. But cricket is a game of fine margins, and today, the Falcons soared just that little bit higher.
In the end, it's the Lucknow Falcons who walk away victorious, winning by four wickets in a match that will be talked about for days! What a game, what a finish! Congratulations to the Falcons!
