That’s a wrap from our side as well. Welsh Fire started their The Hundred campaign on a high note. I hope you enjoyed our coverage. For now, this is Prince Suman signing off on behalf of my co-commentator Ayan Chatterjee, along with scorer/analyst Paras Yadav, but you don’t go anywhere as it’s a double-header in The Hundred Men, and London Spirit will cross swords against Oval Invincibles in the second game of the day.
So, switch the tab and join the second game with our commentators Ayan Chatterjee and Deepak Prakash, who will provide you with all the ball-by-ball analysis of the second contest. CHEERS!
Luke Wells(Player of the Match): "We wanted to have a right-hand left-hand combination, so I believe opening was a last-minute choice. Fortunately, the decision to open paid off. Rain limited the game, so you don't have much time to consider it, but it was enjoyable. I think I have played variety of roles, including opening, batting at positions 3, 4, and lower in the order. Trying to adapt, will hope to do the job for Welsh Fire. Has been a relaxed atmosphere as we are getting to know each other."
