Beveren CC vs Exiles CC 1st Semi-Final, ECS T10 League - Belgium
Beveren CC take on Exiles CC in the first semi-final of the ECS Belgium T10 tournament. The match takes place at the Belgian Oval, Gent, on August 16 and the live action starts at 11:00 local time.
Beveren CC go into the match as favourites, having won both group matches in Group A. They ended their first day with a win against Mechelen Eagles – bowling them out for 62 on their way to a five-wicket victory – and then chased 80 to beat Hasselt by six wickets in their second match.
Exiles CC opened the tournament with a win against Ostend, meanwhile, successfully defending 80/7 in an eight-run win, but they only posted 70/6 against Liege and lost in the final over by four wickets. It meant a second-place finish and by far the tougher of the semi-finals.

BCC Team News
Beveren CC made a couple of changes between matches but, in keeping with their season as a whole, they were not wholesale adjustments.
BCC Key Players
- Zakhil Saber: Three wickets and a top score in the first game continued his fine all-round form and he looks one of the top all-rounders on show.
- Abdul Rashid Karim Dostikhel: Yet to rediscover his own batting form at the top of the order but his T20 record speaks for itself.
- Hakim Said: Key with the bat and among their leading bowlers too, he took 3-6 in the first game and has batted well in both matches.
BCC Team Form
In-form Saber Zakhil and captain Hakim Said each took three wickets to bowl Beveren to a big win against Mechelen Eagles on day one – carting them for 62 and chasing it comfortably to win by five wickets. They then chased 80 to beat Hasselt on day two, winning that by four wickets with Shahidullah Otmanzai (27*) top-scoring.
