Match was delayed 30 minutes and started at 9:30 am due to the wet outfield. Penang Sports Development Team (PSDT) won the toss and elected to field first. The weather was very much cricket friendly as it was a bright sunny day. This game was a must win for both teams as the first step towards lifting the trophy.
Vinnay and Belveran started the PSDT innings with positive mindset. The both opners played well and managed to stay on the wicket against the UTP fast bowlers. Belveran went back early as he was clean bowled by Hafeez. He made 11 runs. Vinnay took the challenge and started crafting innings with Varun but could not succeed to impress.
