Shillong, Oct 4: Nagaland and Sikkim will meet in the final of the 1st Senior Women’s Interstate Friendship T20 Tournament, organised by the North East Cricket Development Council and hosted by the Meghalaya Cricket Association on Saturday.
The two semifinals had to be shifted to today, the reserve day, at the Pahamsning Cricket Ground near Nongpoh, but the continuing rainfall meant that it was not possible to hold full matches.
Instead, the first semifinal between Meghalaya and Nagaland was decided by a ‘Bowl Out’, where bowlers from each team stepped up to the crease and tried to knock down the stumps at the other end. It was a tense few minutes for each side and Nagaland came out narrowly 2-1 to progress to the title match.The second semi was between Sikkim and Manipur and this was decided by a ‘Super Over’.
