On the wet pitch and with slow outfield the openers Kinley Wangchuk and Captain Dechen played exceptionally the best inning with 32 runs opening partnership. Dechen could only contribute 17 runs when he was caught at point by Vijay on Amrit's bowl. Yangchenphug lost two quick wickets to build pressure on themselves but Bishnu played a anchor role to support the in-formed batsmen Kinley who score 69runs. Bishnu along with Karma added 36 & 24 runs respectively to build on a huge total. Yangchenphug were 210 runs for 5 wickets in 30 over’s.

Kinley Wangchuk with superb 69 runs awarded Mn of the Match

In 2nd inning Lungtenzampa's openers Dawa scored 17 runs and Phub Dorji went without scoring any run(DUCK OUT). The firstdown batsmen Youten Tashi who was well know for his calm and coolness during the pressure situation was unfortunatly runout by Tshering Tobgay with his brilliant fielding. Yangchenphug with aggressive bowling attack traumatized Lungtenzampa's batsmen and bowled them out for 62 runs in 11.5 over's. Dorji took 3 wickets for 10 runs in just 1.5 overs.

In another match, Motithang was up against Dechencholing at Jigmethang Cricket Ground. Dechencholing won the toss and elected to field first. Poor batting performances from Motithang made 64 runs in 14.2 overs. The Opening bowling Galey Zangpo was the most economical and consistent wicket taker from the Dechencholing side took 4 wickets for 18 runs in 5 overs. Sisir scored 12 runs which was highest for Motithang and only one to be in the double figure. The tense situation kept everyone on thier feet and could not believe Dechencholing lost the geam which they could have easily won. Motithang fast bowler Sisir, who believed in his team showed miracle in second inning and won the match for motithang. "Every pressure situation can be handle which i believed and we did it",said the fast bowler. Motithang took first wicket for no runs which boosted them to fight back. He bowled 4overs and took away 6 wickets for just 13 runs which won the match and made him undoubtly the Man of the Match. I thought this game was ours but can't believe that Motithang took away the game with our poor batting performance but all the credit goes to Sisir said Deki Yangzom coach of Dechencholing.
