...Presentation next...
Bangla Tigers will be delighted. Despite such a huge score, it wasn't an easy rest for them. Miller's quick fifty saw them put such a huge score but Northern Warriors weren't giving up is such an easy fashion. They made the bowlers work hard. It could have gone either way but Dominic Drakes kept his nerves in the last over to get the two points.
A low scoring thriller in the last match, a high-scoring thriller now. You have to feel for the likes of Hazratullah Zazai and Neesham who tried so hard and almost made it but in the most important moment gave up. Chasing such a high total, Kennar Lewis and Hazratullah Zazai went berserk as they scored boundaries for fun. Both scored 14 boundaries in total with Zazai playing a big role. At one moment, it felt like Northern Warriors will chase down with balls to spare but lost flurry in wickets. It came down to James Neesham but it just wasn't his day.

Dominic Drakes has done it. This is full and outside off. Neesham tries to be funky, tries to scoop it over third man but mistimes it completely and it just lobs to point. Bangla Tigers win by 2 runs.
