...Presentation next..
New York Strikers tested their bench in this game but the way they batted was not acceptable. Poor shot-selection from a few batters didn't help New York Strikers a lot. Morrisville Samp Army bowlers were right on point and they did exceptionally well to put New York Strikers in such a position.
A comfortable win in the end and it is Morrisville Samp Army who top the table. With such a small score, it could get tricky and Morrisville Samp Army did lose some wickets but needed just one man to play a long innings and Dewald Brevis didn't waste the opportunity. Brevis played some fine shots and along with his skipper took the top spot.
