Victoria crushes Central districts by 7 wickets in a nail biting match.
Central Districts elected to bat first after winning the toss .
The openers didn't give a good partnership as PJ Ingram got out on the very first ball of the innings but JM How played sensibly and made quick 77 runs in 55 balls(4's 10, 6's 3) and remained not out while wickets kept falling from other shore.
No major contribution was given by other players it was only MJ How's show from Central Districts till the end. Central Districts put up a target of 165/5 in 20 overs.
Batting second Victorian openers RJ Quiney and AJ Finch looked good in the begining but Quiney lost his wicket at a score of 15 in 15 balls(4's 2, 6's 0) but AJ Finch took Central Districts target single handedly ,he remained not out on the score of 93* in 60 balls(4's 11, 6's 3).
In the end Victoria needed 12 runs from 6 balls and it was Fich on strike, the very first ball was banged to boundary , the second ball was scored for a single which brought Mc Donald on strike but Mc Donald played intelligently and took a single on the third ball of last over and gave strike to Finch.
It was Bracewell bowling under pressure and Finch utilised his pressure and nervousness by hitting SIX on the fouth ball and finished the game. Thats it Victoria crushed Central Districts by 7 wickets and gained two points in the league.
AJ Finch was declared as man of the match for his thrilling performance.
