BCCB Twenty20 Final on Sunday


Team Dot Com and BTCL are in the finals of the ongoing Twenty20 tournament being played at the Jigmethang ground in Thimphu.

On Monday, Dot Com brushed aside Rigsum CC comfortably by nine wickets, while BTCL clinched a two wicket victory over Bhutan Telecom.

Choosing to field first after winning the toss proved a correct decision for Dot Com. No other batsman made an impact from Rigsum, except Manoj Adhikari, who scored 35 in 34 balls. Dot Com’s captain Jigme Singye was the pick of the bowlers with three wickets, while Tandin Wangchuk, Lobzang Younten and Nima shared two wickets each.

At the end of their 20 overs Rigsum set a 106-run target. Rigsum brought down Kinley Wangchuk in the fifth over and, thereafter, it was all Dot Com. Leading from the front, captain Jigme Singye hit his first half century of the tournament, while Susil Sharma added a supporting 30 in 31 balls. Jigme Singye was named man of the match for his all-round performance of three wickets and 57 runs.

Later in the afternoon, Bhutan Telecom came close to winning, but it was BTCL, who ultimately passed the pressure situation, beating Telecom by two wickets. It would have been Telecom’s game, if BTCL Ugyen Dorji had not hit four boundaries in the 18th over.

Having won the toss, Bhutan Telecom elected to bat first and set a 123-run target that included 58 runs from Saijo and 20 from Damber Gurung. BTCL’s opening bowler Darjay ripped through Telecom’s opening batsmen, picking up three wickets.

In reply, BTCL scored 123 for the loss of eight wickets. Tandin top scored with 33 runs and Ugyen added a crucial 19 in 10 balls. Vijay Gurung yet again picked four wickets but couldn’t save his team from losing. Sonam Darjay was awarded the man of the match.

The finals is scheduled for May 8.
