CL 09, M6: B: NSW v. Sussex: NSW Bowlers Keep it Tight for Sussex!

New South Wales bowlers headed by Brett Lee and company restricted Sussex from scoring 131 in 20 overs. Chasing 131, Sussex finished at 95 for 8, short by 35 runs. This is the lowest total in this edition of the champions league.

Lee struck in the third ball of the first over to remove Joyce, bowled for a duck. Henriques picked 3 wickets. None of the Sussex batsmen was able to manage the bowling attack and improvise the run rate. The target was easy but the batsmen could not make it.

Earlier, New South Wales played a slow innings and ended with 130 losing just 2 wickets. Hughes and Henriques remained not out on 62 and 51 respectively. They both added 90 for the 3rd wicket in 11.2 overs.

With this victory, NSW qualified for the next stage. The match between Sussex and Eagles is a do-or-die for both the teams. The winners of that match will qualify for the next round.
