| 9.1 : 9.1: A Abioye to N Kumar, FOUR! Nicely placed! A low full toss outside off, Kumar just opens the face of the bat and guides it past point for a boundary. Good start to the over for Canada. |
| 9.3 : 9.3: A Abioye to A Khan, FOUR! Educational edge! This is on a length and around off, Khan opens the face of the bat, the ball though goes off the outside edge, very fine and a boundary in the third man region. |

| 16.2 : 16.2: D Ajekun to Bin Zafar, OUT! Another one bites the dust! LBW! This starts on off and then it drifts back in. It is fuller in length. Bin Zafar looks to flick but misses to get hit on the pads. An appeal and up goes the finger. Canada losing their way here. 150 looks farfetched now. |

| 18.1 : 18.1: I Okpe to H Tariq, SIX! That has made a cracking sound off the bat and it has gone a long way. This is right in the zone. Full and on middle, Tariq whips it over the mid-wicket fence for a maximum. Pressure on the bowler now, a biggie to begin the over. |
| 18.5 : 18.5: I Okpe to H Tariq, SIX! That is a flat one! 35 runs from the last 11 balls. This is carnage. Shorter and outside off, Tariq slaps it hard and it goes over the cover fence. |
| 19.6 : 19.6: A Abioye to H Tariq, OUT! Taken, no it has been put down, no it is taken in the end! A wicket to end a very good last over. A slower one outside off, Tariq swings hard but does not get it right off the middle. It goes high up in the air towards long off where the fielder looks to take it but the ball pops out. It then hits his face and then lobs nicely. He takes it on the second attempt. CANADA END WITH 159/7! |
| 1.1 : 1.1: D Heyliger to L Oyede, OUT! CAUGHT! Breakthrough for Canada! Golden duck for Oyede! Short of a length ball on off, Oyede looks to pull this one over the leg side but it goes off the top edge uppishly towards third man. The fielder there, Rodrigo Thomas, takes a good catch after getting forward a bit. Nigeria lose their first wicket early on and not the start they would have wanted. |
| 1.3 : 1.3: D Heyliger to D Ajekun, OUT! CAUGHT! Both the openers for Nigeria depart and Canada are on a roll! Good length ball outside off, Ajekun looks to smash this one over mid off but the bat turns in his hands due to the extra pace on the ball. He miscues it completely and the ball lobs towards extra cover. Ravinderpal Singh runs across to his left from mid off and takes a good catch. Nigeria in deep trouble early on. |
| 4.4 : 4.4: Bin Zafar to C Onwuzulike, FOUR! Short and wide outside off, Onwuzulike rocks back and cuts this one through cover-point for a boundary. First boundary of the innings this. |
| 5.4: N Dutta to S Runsewe, FOUR! Too short and too wide and it is put away. Width on offer. Runsewe cuts it past point for a boundary. |
| 6.2 : 6.2: N Kumar to C Onwuzulike, FOUR! Floated on the pads, Onwuzulike pre-meditates this one and sweeps it through the gap at fine leg for a boundary. |
| 7.1 : 7.1: N Dutta to C Onwuzulike, FOUR! Oh dear, bad bad fielding! This is short and wide outside off, Onwuzulike cuts this one off the back foot towards cover-point. The fielder in the deep runs past the ball and the ball goes into the fence. |
| 9.6 : 9.6: Bin Zafar to S Runsewe, OUT! CAUGHT! Navneet Dhaliwal takes the catch! Zafar floats this one outside off, Runsewe looks to go over the cover region but ends up slicing it towards Navneet Dhaliwal at point who takes a simple catch to his right. The 57-run stand is broken and Nigeria will have to rebuild now. 101 needed off 60 balls. |
| 10.2 : 10.2: N Dhaliwal to C Onwuzulike, SIX! All the way! Out comes the slog sweep. It has been played really well. It clears the backward square leg fence. |
| 11.1 : 11.1: Bin Zafar to C Onwuzulike, OUT! RUN OUT! There was no run there and the skipper has to depart. Floated outside off by Zafar, Onwuzulike pushes this one towards cover-point and looks to take a quick single. However, there is no run there and Nitish Kumar quickly gets to the ball. He picks it up and quickly throws it to the keeper who wjips the bails off in a flash. |
| 12.2 : 12.2: N Dhaliwal to C Onwuzulike, OUT! Kaboom! Half the side back in the hut for Nigeria. A yorker on the leg pole. Onwuzulike swings but misses. The leg stump is hit. A good knock by him comes to an end but he needed to stay out there for longer. |
| 13.3 : 13.3: Bin Zafar to I Okpe, OUT! TIMBER! Nigeria lose their sixth wicket! Zafar floats this one on the leg pole line, Okpe looks to heave this one over mid-wicket but misses the ball altogether. The ball crashes into the leg pole and Okpe has to depart. Canada on the brink of victory now. |
| 14.2 : 14.2: N Dutta to S Adedeji, OUT! Drags it on! It seems like a wicket is falling every over now. 7 down are Nigeria now. This is shorter and just outside off. Adedeji looks to cut but that shot is not on. He gets an inside edge onto the stumps. |
| 15.4 : 15.4: D Heyliger to S Okpe, FOUR! This time gets it right! Short and wide outside off, Okpe cuts this one towards the point region for a boundary. Seems like it has been ages since the last boundary. The last one came in the 11th over. |
| 19.1 : 19.1: D Heyliger to S Okpe, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Length ball just outside off by Heyliger, Sylvester Okpe rocks back and looks to cut it but the ball goes off the edge straight to the keeper who gets down and takes a good low catch. The partnership which seemingly was going on for an eternity is broken. Heyliger just enhancing his bowling stats now. |
