Preview:
Defending champions Malo are still searching for their first win in this tournament. In a nail-biting back-to-back clash on an opening day, they lost to Friendship CC and Gorkha 11 by 4 runs and 9 runs respectively. They have a point to prove here against Fighters CC and will need to justify their quality as a unit.
Fighters CC, on the other hand, looked a better side in their first two matches. They will be disappointed in losing out their first game against Wild Panthers by 5 wickets in the final ball of the match. In the last match on the second day, they defended 80 runs quite successfully against Coimbra Knights and got first points on the board.

Pitch Report:
It’s a genuine batting track, where the batters can smash the ball all day long. The bowlers need to bend their back in order to generate extra pace. It’s 110-120 kind of a wicket and anything more than that it’s a bonus.
