Vantaa Cricket Club

The side will need to win their remaining four matches in order to have any chance of qualifying for the playoffs of the competition. Vantaa CC will rue the fact that they should have won their previous game against Stadin ja Keravan Kriketti.

In their previous clash, Vantaa CC lost the toss and bowled first. The bowlers failed to make any breakthroughs with the new-ball as Stadin ja Keravan Kriketti openers added 57-run partnership.

Once the openers were dismissed, spinners put on a chokehold on the middle-order.

Off-spinner Ameer Warsha Mohamed was the standout bowler on display and claimed 2 for 12 in his four overs. Medium pacer Sanjeewa Peththahandi produced a splendid bowling performance and claimed important wickets of Atif Rasheed and Areeb Quadir.

Chasing 91 runs from 20 overs, Vantaa CC got off to a worse possible start as the side lost half their side with just 23 runs on the board.
