TNN Titans v Unfit Legends
ACM Gold T20 Night League
TNN Titans batted first in the season opener, losing wickets early on in the innings. The team stumbled as the Legends bowlers Shamas Arfeen and Junaid Imran ripped through the opposition, taking 2 wickets each, handicapping the Titans batsmen. Abdur Rehman (39) and Owais Pasta (34) then stepped in to stabilize the innings, contributing some much needed runs with the bat and pulling their team right back in the game. Legends bowler Raza fought hard to break the oppositions momentum, finally getting a breakthrough and picking up 3 wickets to limit TNN Titans to 159 runs in 20 overs.
Unfit Legends were off to a rocky start in their chase, losing opener Jamil Akbar for just 8 runs. Atif Ahmed however starred in the chase, scoring a fantastic 62 runs at a strike rate of 155 to try and save his side. He received little support on the other end as wickets fell in regular intervals. 4 of the remaining Legends batsmen fell for single digits including 1 duck. Titans bowler Idrees Amin stole the show with an unbelievable spell of 5 wickets for just 17 runs in his 4 overs. Unfit Legends were restricted for 128 runs.
TNN Titans won by 31 runs.
