DMCC and WNS are two teams who have been excellent in this tournament and an exciting competition was bound to happen.

DMCC made 144/7 in 45overs batting first as the WNS bowlers really kept it tight. Opener H.Dodia with 49 looked solid but the rest of the batsman really struggled. From the bowlers, Aditya Nikam turned out to be the most impressive of the lot taking 4/39 in 9overs while the other bowlers also did not allow the batsman to score runs freely. Aditya bowled at really good line and length while kept on giving crucial breakthroughs which did the job for his team.
