Chasing a target of 169 runs for victory, the visiting side actually began their innings with a great deal of confidence. The opening batters showed positive intent, taking the attack to the bowling lineup and keeping the scoreboard moving at a brisk pace.
Middle Order Collapse
Despite the promising start to the run chase, the innings quickly unraveled following a flurry of quick wickets. The pressure mounted as the batting lineup failed to stabilize, leading to a sudden collapse that shifted the momentum entirely back to the fielding side.
