The Houston Generals proved their mettle last night with a sensational 5-wicket victory over arch-rivals Dallas Dynamos in front of a roaring home crowd.
Chasing a daunting target of 185 in 20 overs, the Generals stumbled early, losing two quick wickets. However, a stabilize partnership and a fiery 30-ball 70 by the captain turned the tide. The match went down to the wire, needing 10 off the last over, finished in style with a massive six over long-on.
“The boys showed incredible character today,” Coach Davis said after the match. “To chase down that total against a bowling attack like Dallas shows we are ready for the playoffs.”
The Generals now sit second in the division table.
