Bermuda’s batsmen had no answer for Kaleem Sana’s accuracy and Jeremy Gordon’s pace, all out for 93 in the 17th over. Both bowlers took three wickets with Bermuda’s lower order crumbling from 85 for five to 93 all out.
I don’t follow cricket very much, but this is an impressive defensive feat. Not only did they get everyone out, but the last 6 batsmen only scored 8 runs!
I didn’t even know we had a team!
We’ve got more than enough Indians to have a good team.
Good to see from the Canadian team.
CONGRATS~
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The Canadian batsmen finished strongly with Nicholas Kirton sparking a 20-run final over for a total of 132 runs for four wickets.
The Canadians failed to qualify for the eight previous editions of the T20 World Cup, which has expanded to 20 teams in 2024 when it will be co-hosted by the West Indies and United States.
“A lot of cricketing gurus here wrote us off after the first day but I believe God could not have written a more dramatic script for us,” said Canada captain Saad Bin Zafar, before hoisting the tournament trophy surrounded by his teammates.
Tropical Storm Philippe lashed Bermuda with heavy rains and winds before being downgraded to a post-tropical cyclone Friday as it churned northward toward Atlantic Canada and New England.
Canada struck quickly with Thaker removing opener Tre Manders, well caught by Johnson at slip, in the second over with just two Bermuda runs on the board.
But Douglas exited in the 14th over via a acrobatic diving catch by Heyliger off a Jeremy Gordon delivery, leaving Bermuda at 85 for five.
