Cuttack, Sep 27 (Ians) The eighth match of the Legends League Cricket (LLC) on Monday saw a nail-biting finish as Harbhajan Singh’s Manipal Tigers edged out Irfan Pathan’s Bhilwara Kings by just 3 runs to register their first win of the League.
After a superlative opening partnership between Tatenda Taibu and Jesse Ryder helped the Tigers post 175/8 in 20 overs, the Kings, powered by brothers Irfan and Yusuf Pathan, almost pulled off a thrilling chase at the Barabati Stadium.
The Kings needed 9 runs from the last over to win, but former Sri Lanka speedster Dilhara Fernando conceded only 5, besides also taking two wickets. Fernando finished with 4/31 from his four overs as the Kings ended on 172/9.
The Kings did not get the blistering start that the Tigers had. While Taibu and Ryder had plundered 63 without loss in their Powerplay overs, the Kings managed only 43/1.

New Delhi, March 22 (Ians) Bhuvneshwar Kumar's return to top-flight cricket from thigh injury, sustained in Ipl 2020, appears sudden and smooth due to his performance in the recent T20 series against England. But behind the success has been significant amount of work and some doubts on whether he will be fit prior to Ipl 2021.
The right-arm pacer, who was the most economical bowler across the two sides with a rate of 6.38 an over, simulated match conditions and put in the hard yards while practicing his variations and swing bowling at a Noida ground.
Ahead of the Indian Premier League 2020 edition, he practiced for close to two months in Noida. He was ruled out of Ipl due to thigh muscle injury during a match in the league phase of the cash-rich tournament, but post recuperation, he returned for about a fortnight's practice -- about a week before Mushtaq Ali...
