Beveren CC vs Mechelen Eagles Final , ECS T10 League - Belgium
Having started their campaign by beating them comfortable, Beveren CC meet Mechelen Eagles once again in the final of the ECS Belgium T10 tournament. The match, at Gent’s Belgian Oval, takes place on August 16 and the live action starts at 18:00 local time.
Beveren CC bowled Mechelen Eagles out for 62 when they last met, winning by five wickets and – having won every game in the T20 league this season too – continued their superb form by seeing off Hasselt and Exiles to reach the final.
Mechelen Eagles had already beaten Hasselt before their loss to Beveren, ensuring they finished second in the group, but they put in a fine batting performance in the semi-final to post 96/7 against Ostend. Ostend were 40/3 from 5.4 overs in reply, with Muhammad Ismail claiming back-to-back wickets before the rain came, to ensure the Eagles were on top and won.

Mechelen Eagles chased 77 to beat Hasselt first up, with Deen Islam getting them over the line with two balls to spare, before a heavy defeat to Beveren – bowled out for 62. Helped by some wayward Ostend bowling, Mechelen bounced back last time out though.
