The Andhra Premier League 2022 has already seen four of its best teams from the league stages raised the bar further in Qualifier 1 and Eliminator. With only two positions available for the final, teams had to fight immensely for the final berth.
July 15 saw two games of equal importance in the Andhra Premier League, let’s look at the match report for the same.
Andhra Premier League 2022: Qualifier 1 Bezawada Tigers vs Coastal Riders
The first match from July 15th came with an opportunity to book a berth straight in the final. The winner of the first Qualifier had a chance to move to the final while the loser had one more shot at the opportunity. Talking of the game, CSR won the toss and elected to bowl first.
Batting first, the BZW team got off to a poor start as they lost their first wicket at a team score of 13. Maheep Kumar(41) from the other end. However, along with the number three batter Maddala A, Praneeth (47) came up with a great partnership to take the team score to 90 before Maheep was dismissed. Praneeth was also out a bit later with two new batters Ricky Bhui and KP Sai Rahul, batting at the crease when the rain came and became a spoilsport. The match was stopped and later called off due to continuous rain. CSR team advanced to the final as they were top of the table in the league stages. BZW would now play the loser of the Eliminator in APL 2022.
