Commentary

This is it from the live coverage of this game with India Legends winning it by 5 wickets. That’s it for today from myself Nikhil Kalla alongside my co-commentator Vikhyat Jain with our scorer/analyst Paras. See you soon again with more games to follow till then stay safe.

Naman Ojha: "Thanks to everyone in my team and Sachin paaji for backing me throughout the tournament. I was little nervous early on and paaji told me to just play your shots. Playing with Sachin paaji is a dream come true, dreamt of this since my childhood days. We are looking forward to the big Final."

Sachin Tendulkar: "Our bowlers did a magnificent job to keep them down to 171 only. Today, it were the batters who delivered for us. Naman Ojha did well to stay till the end and then Irfan came out and played a magnificent and special innings. Both Naman and Irfan made it look easy out there when it wasn't. Mithun was incredible with the ball and so were the other bowlers. All in all it was a team effort."

Shane Watson: "That was good total to defend. Credit to India to take that away and especially Irfan Pathan who came out and took Dirk Nannes to the cleaners. Unfortunate to be on the losing side but it's always a pleasure to be a part of such thrillers. Credit to the whole management for putting up such a brilliant series."

Irfan Pathan: "I wanted to stay till the last and looked to target a particular bowler. Naman Ojha was fantastic to stay till the end and finish the game off. Credit goes to the support staff on keeping us fit. I am enjoying every bit of my time here and to be around Sachin is simply amazing. We will have a tough game next and we look forward to it."

19.2 B Lee to I Pathan

4 FOUR!! A fitting end to all the drama as Irfan seals the deal for his team with a boundary. India advance to the finals. Full on the pads, and Irfan stylishly flicks it over the ropes on the on side and raises his bat to the dugout in elation.

19.2 B Lee to I Pathan

WD Scores level! Lee aims for the wide yorker but was a tad outside the tramp line. A wide called.

1 Full on the pads, Ojha flicks it to the mid-wicket region for a single
