Legal Titans and Lawyer Challengers booked their places in the final of the Advocates Cricket League (ACL) after registering impressive wins in the semi-finals at the GCA Academy Ground, Porvorim, on Friday.
In the first semi-final, league toppers United Brothers were stunned as Legal Titans completed the highest successful run chase in tournament history. Batting first, United Brothers posted 215 for 4 in 20 overs, with Devanand Korgaonkar top-scoring with 57. Chasing the target, Legal Titans produced a blistering display, with Kishan Kavlekar hitting 45 off 18 balls and Kyle Ticlo remaining unbeaten on 55 off 19 deliveries to secure a five-wicket win with two balls to spare.
The second semi-final saw Lawyer Challengers defend a modest total of 151, restricting 18 Juners to 134 for 5 in 20 overs for a 17-run victory. Achit Shigwan led the effort with an all-round performance, scoring 37 runs and taking a wicket, while Iftikhar Agha claimed 2/32 to strengthen the bowling attack. The title clash is scheduled today at 6 p.m. at the same venue.
