Preview:
North 24-PGS Champs are all set to take on Burdwan Blues in the second Semi-final of the Bengal Inter District T20 2021 on Saturday (December 11). North 24-PGS Champs had a good tournament so far, having won all the three matches they played. They defeated Hooghly River in the second quarter-final by defending the total of 135 runs posted by them. They look a completely different side when their top-order batters perform well.
On the other side, Burdwan Blues are heading into this match by beating Dare Devil Dakshin Dinajpur in the 4th quarterfinal game. The opposition opted to bat first after winning the toss and posted a poor score of 73 runs on the board. Burdwan Blues chased down the target within 12 overs and 9 wickets in hand. The competition will get tougher for both teams as the tournament progresses to its business end.
