Leicestershire Ruhuna and pushed, pulled, pulled, stepped on his feet to try to do it the first train, but both could have lost only. The two teams seeking their first victory, with the hope that is large enough to spoil the party of Kolkata Knight Riders, Somerset, who won their opening matches and were due to compete later in the evening. Leicestershire needed to chase 161 in 13.2 overs to secure automatic qualification, Ruhuna necessary to keep 140. As it turned out, led by Abdul Razzaq, one of the cleanest hitters of our time right in Leicestershire automatic classification threatened unlikely, but the Ruhuna spinners kept pulling back. Razzaq died in a last effort to increase the delivery rate, and turn, swallowed to shape a dramatic victory, allowing only 28 runs in the last six acquisitions.

Leicestershire has been removed, but now two points Ruhuna, Somerset in Calcutta and its annualized net Somerset -0.28 Kolkata being 0.1 and 0.05. With only two teams in the four to cross, Ruhuna had to stay back and look with hope that the final qualifier on one side is enough to push one side of the network of 'run-rate down.

Amid all of the quantitative, it was easy to overlook the importance of good runs on a track slow. Before breaking Razzaq 68 46 out of combat came Dinesh Chandimal 62 out of 51 using the Ruhuna get 17 to 2 and 67 for the fourth Remember today to represent Sri Lanka in the Test against Pakistan, Chandimal was in the beginning with slower balls Harry Gurney causing a bulge with the important wickets of Sanath Jayasuriya and Mahela Udawatte.

Chandimal enabled smart, do not take many risks, executives of large, especially the lower floor, adding 44 and 41 with Milinda and Siriwardana Shalika Karunanayake. They stand with Siriwardana helped them recover after losing the first four inside 10 overs, with a Karunanayake Ruhuna provided the final push. Karunanayake scored 28 on 41, off just 15 balls. Forty-seven came out of the last four acquisitions, and Ruhuna had driven right past the train approaches in Leicestershire.

Razzaq had played a major role in the maintenance of Ruhuna down at first. The second window, he had 100 in Twenty20 was his. Then he played the supporting role with the ball, he knew he wanted to do everything on his own. He refuted the slow lane by simply refusing to play square. Sixty-one of his races has come to the site, 32 of them in the ground. With its high grip on the bat as he waited to hit the ground with the leverage of the handle length. When he left the crease to smash Jayasuriya in the second layer behind the long-on.

Ruhuna, however, kept cutting support Razzaq'a. Joshua Cobb Arosha Janod obtained for 15 off six balls and Asanka Silva took Andrew McDonald, captain of the injured Matthew Hoggard absent in 24 15th when Jefferson was a rough call IPN into 81 to 3 to 9.1 overs, it was clear 13.2 overs would come and go. They came and went. Razzaq, were as much an annualized gain as possible, and began to try to hit six in each delivery from the 12th over to leave. Thirty-three came in three overs, but after last hole Razzaq hit two drops.

With 33 of 36 needed, Leicestershire lost their way a bit. Black and Wayne Paul Nixon refused to play big shots in the next two acquisitions, and suddenly Ruhuna were favorites to win. The tail could not handle it alone was in the closer monitoring. Then they played 20 overs, reducing the margin of only four races left Ruhuna with increased minimum rate of execution.

When stripped of Ruhuna Leicestershire, the train was about to leave the station.
