Thread for Season 65. Please join.

First match of the season against the team whom I faced at the last round of previous season. Significantly stronger than my team; we have to perform our best to overcome this hurdle. Good luck boys!

Risk Factor Reborn! won by 6 wickets.

A win to start with.

A good start on a sticky track. After six overs we are 34/0. It will be great if we can finish the league in the top four.

Youth 3.4

Lost the toss in a match against Kolkata Super Giants. Fielding first on a hot/sticky wicket. In spite of bowling two of them out in the first over they recovered well and were 92/3 at the drinks break. But soon after the drink my wristie took two quick wickets, to again put them under pressure.

End of over 31 (maiden) - Kolkata Super Giants (111-5) RR 3.58

I reckon any score less than 175 is chasable on this wicket.

It was a total squeaker of a finish. With almost 17k ratings deficit KSG got me nine down before somehow I chased this score. Two sticky home pitches this week so far. Won the T20 by 1 run and the YOD by 1 wicket.

A target of 189 on humid/green is not going to be an easy one. And we lost our opener in the first over itself.
