Bhilwara Kings batted in a royal fashion to tame the Gujarat Giants and book a place in the final of the ongoing Legends League Cricket (LLC) against India Capitals.
In the Eliminator contest at the Barkatullah Khan Stadium on Monday, the Kings' batters out-muscled the Giants by chasing down a 195-run target in 18.3 overs to register a six-wicket win.
The Kings latched on to the chase from the very beginning of their innings as their openers - William Porterfield and Morne van Wyk - put on a terrific opening stand of 91 in nine overs.
While Porterfield scored 60 off 43 balls, Van Wyk got 31 off 18 balls. Once the openers were back to the hut, Shane Watson and brothers Yusuf and Irfan Pathan did their bit to help the Kings race to their target.
