At one stage they had reduced the Caps to 108-7 before a late-order revival by Pintu (42) and Jaman (37). Then Everest themselves slipped to 31-4, with 3 wickets for Mangala, before Shyam steadied the ship with 75 and Everest got home by three wickets.<br \/>\nThe big game in the T20 league on Sunday was the meeting of Sri Lankan CC from Nicosia with the Limassol Sri Lanka Lions. The Nicosia-based team made 165-8 with Chandana scoring 52 and Randunu 46 not out.<br \/>\nLions set off quickly in reply with Nalin making 23 before falling to a superb caught-and-bowled by Supan, but Akila survived two early dropped catches to score a rapid 88, combining with Sadun (34 not out) in a vital third wicket partnership of 109.<strong> The Lions reached their victory target in just 13 overs with 6 wickets in hand<\/strong>.<br \/>\nTelugu 11 continued their good start to the season with a 6-wicket win over a much-changed Nicosia Tigers team. Roman survived a testing opening spell by Charan and Rajasekhar to score 40 but there were no other major scores as Tigers made 135-6.<br \/>\nTelugu made quick inroads into their target with a century opening partnership, full of frenetic running as well as some good shots, between Srinivas (58) and Vinod (25). Tigers\u2019 new bowler Noyon bowled an excellent 3 over spell, taking 3 wickets for just 6 runs, but Telugu were able to reach victory with 4 overs left.<br \/>\n<strong>In group C both Lankan SC and Punjabi Kings kept up their winning starts to the season.<\/strong> The Lankans got off to a great start with an 80-run partnership between Suresh (50) and Tharanga (44), followed by unbeaten innings of 64 in 30 balls by Ashanka and 25 by Sujith, giving them an impressive total of 206-3.<br \/>\nBlack Caps in reply started well, reaching 92-1 thanks to Sandhu (40) and Brar (44). But Lankan bowlers Roshan (3-21) and Saman (3-25) turned the tide, and the Caps fell short on 165 all out.<br \/>\nPunjabi Kings\u2019 wicketkeeper Karan led the way with an unbeaten 48 as they reached 147-8 against Limassol Moufflons, for whom Manish took 3-21. The Moufflons reply was a rather tame 117-9.
