Match Details:

The 12th match of the European Cricket Series Alicante T10 will be played between Levante C.C and La Manga C.C at the Sporting Alfas Cricket Club in Alicante.

Preview for Dream11 Fantasy

It’s been a pretty tight tournament so far. Barring Intellectuals C.C who have lost four games in a row, no team has run away with the lead despite a couple of them remaining unbeaten. Moreover, it’s been a very high scoring tournament. Levante C.C have had a good start to this European Cricket Series Alicante T10. They started their campaign with a tie against Madrid United C.C before eking out an eight-run win over Pinatar Pirates C.C.

In both games, Levante batted first and got a score in excess of 100 and the bowlers responded well. On the other hand, La Manga C.C started their tournament with a thumping win over Intellectuals C.C who fell 40 runs short of La Manga’s score of 108. However, a similar score (105) wasn’t enough against Pinatar Pirates C.C as they chased it down with 10 balls to spare. Hence, these two seem like evenly matched sides and this promises to be a good battle.
