The Meerut Mavericks got off to a flying start, with openers Swastik Chikara and Yuvraj Singh stitching together a crucial 82-run partnership. Chikara, known for his aggressive batting, continued the momentum after Yuvraj’s dismissal, scoring a well-paced 78 runs off just 45 balls. His knock included 7 fours and 4 sixes, keeping the Noida bowlers on their toes.

Following Chikara’s departure, Captain Rahul Sharma steadied the ship with a composed 42 runs off 38 balls. He found valuable support from all-rounder Vikrant Chauhan (28 runs off 17 balls) towards the end of the innings. The lower order chipped in with crucial cameos, ensuring the Mavericks reached a strong total.

For the Noida Super Kings, the bowling attack struggled to contain the free-flowing runs from the Meerut batsmen. Left-arm spinner Kunal Tyagi was the lone bright spark, picking up 2 wickets for 32 runs in his quota of 4 overs. Pacers Shivam Mavi and Abhinav Kumar went wicketless, conceding over 40 runs each.

Noida Super Kings Begin Chase

In response to the mammoth 188-run target, the Noida Super Kings openers, Nitish Rana and Rohan Solanki, started cautiously. They built a steady partnership of 45 runs before Rana was dismissed by Meerut’s pace spearhead Zeeshan Ansari for 32 runs.

New batsman Karan Vir Singh joined Solanki at the crease and the duo continued to rotate the strike, looking to build a foundation for the chase. However, the required run rate is steadily climbing, putting pressure on the Noida batsmen.

Match in the Balance

With a long way to go in the chase, the match hangs in the balance. The Noida Super Kings need a strong partnership and some big hitting to reach the target. The Meerut bowlers, on the other hand, will be looking to pick up wickets at regular intervals and restrict the run flow.

  • Meerut Mavericks: Swastik Chikara (78 runs), Rahul Sharma (42 runs), Zeeshan Ansari (2 wickets)
  • Noida Super Kings: Nitish Rana (32 runs), Rohan Solanki (38* runs), Kunal Tyagi (2 wickets)
