Awais 7 runs provided slow start as they collected 24 runs from 8 overs in spite of continues 2nd power play. The bowlers of Genpact delivered perfect line & length and with just 15 more run on board picked the second wkt on 39 runs. Mayur played few attractive shots to pick 3 boundaries & a six reaching 39 runs and added 27 runs for the 3rd wkt with Praveen Sharma who contributed 13 runs. Introduction of spin paid off immediate results as Joginder Sehgal tempted Praveen to go over the top completely missed the line of delivery to find his stumps shattered. Mayur added 3 runs more to his total before getting out on the team score of 72 runs. Chandan Singh 30 & Pradeep Deswal 12 runs stepped up the run rate sharing 41 runs partnership from 30 deliveries and taking the team total to 113 runs from 21.3 overs.

In reply, Genpact was in deep trouble as they lost both the openers for just 7 runs on board as Mayur & Chandan picked one wkt each. Arijit (60 runs off 35 balls) unmoved by fall of 2 quick wkts, started his inning in style by hitting a boundary off the very first ball he faced. Arijit played with complete authority and hammered the bowlers to struck 5 boundaries & 5 huge sixes whereas S. Karthick (23 runs) rotated the strike to provided Arijit with maximum strike. This pair took the score to 101 runs from 15.3 overs collected run at faster pace to nearly score more than 6.5 runs per over. Anil Dhaiya provided the required breakthrough as he picked the wkt of Arijit to provide some relief to his side but celebration was doubled as Mayur on the same score got rid of S. Karthick. The success encouraged the bowlers and they came back strongly to pick wkts one after another. Anil Dhaiya picked 3 more wkts to have Joginder, Gaurav & Prakhar back in pavilion for just 18 more to the total. The run out of Danish on 128 runs made the situation more interesting since 13 runs were required with just 2 wkts in hand. IBM-Daksh made brave efforts and fought till end to save the match but Manmohan 16 run N/O off 19 balls stood in their way and reached the target in 23.5 overs.

GENPACT Vs FCS Software FCS Software on wining the toss invited GENPACT to bat first on Harbaksh Stadium. The first wkt fell on the score of 16 runs but Shahbaz Mobin 28 & Arijit 23 runs added 45 runs for the 2nd wkt maintaining run rate of more than 6 run per over & posted 61 runs from 9.3 overs. Rajeev Trehan trapped Arijit LBW to provide an important breakthrough as he was playing shots at will with superb timings. Shahbaz played very sensibly to score 77 runs off 81 balls while Rahul Dixit (18 runs) supported him by rotating the strike and they both shared partnership of 72 runs for the 3rd wkt to post 133 runs on board. Anirvan Singh claimed the wkt of Shahbaz as Salim Javed took a fine catch at point. Rahul Dixit added 3 more run to his total before being dismissed but provided very useful support to Manmohan who hammered 27 runs off 16 balls hitting 4 boundaries & a six sharing partnership of 33 runs to reach 166 runs after the completion of 26 overs. Rahul Singh picked wkt of Rahul Dixit as Salim finished his 3rd catch of the innings.

Gaurav Sehgal 14 runs off 6 balls finally helped his side to post decent total of 202 runs in 30 overs. FCS Software in reply lost first wkt on just 7 runs as S. Karthick claimed the wkt of Parakh Kapoor for no score. Rahul Singh 40 & Anirvan Singh 45 runs played exceptionally well as they went after the bowlers during the power play to hit some neatly timed boundaries & scored nearly 6 runs per over. Both the batsmen collectively hit 10 boundaries also ran hard for very possible run available to share partnership of 88 runs to post 95 runs from 18.3 overs. This pair had firm grip on the match as they faced no discomfort & were picking runs easily but unfortunate run out of Rahul Singh as he ran for unnecessary run while ball went straight to Shahbaz. Anirvan Singh was dismissed with just 2 more to his total as Vishal Samuel did the damage. Loss of 2 quick wkts saw complete change of complexion in the match.
