Pre-Match Analysis:
Handing a couple of lifelines proved costly for India Masters, who endured their first loss of the tournament as they got humbled at the hands of Australia Masters by a huge margin of 95 runs. Sachin Tendulkar’s decision to bowl first didn’t get backed up by their bowlers, who were hit all over the park and ended up conceding 269 for 1 in 20 overs. In response, after skipper Sachin Tendulkar’s eye-catching innings of 64 from 33 balls, they bundled out at 174 in 20 overs. The outcome of their final league game against West Indies doesn’t matter a lot as they already ensured their Semi-final berth. Currently, they are placed at the pole position in the standings with 6 points.
West Indies Masters’ two-match winning streak was halted with their 21-run loss to Sri Lanka Masters on Thursday. The aging players found it difficult to save runs, giving away at least 20 runs, which made the difference in the larger picture. However, the bowlers did a decent job to keep Sri Lanka to 173 for 9 in 20 overs. The run-chase didn’t begin smoothly as they lost Chadwick Walton in the 3rd over and later failed to keep up the asking run-rate and could only make 153 for 5 in 20 overs. They are placed 4th in the standings with 4 points. One win from their remaining two matches is enough for them to officially seal the knockout berth.
