MSC Frankfurt are favourites to win
MSC Frankfurt will look to round off a fine tournament, in which they have already beaten both the hosts and the favourites, to claim the ECS Frankfurt T10 tournament crown. They take on Turk FC Hattersheim am Main in the final, at the Frankfurt Cricket Club on July 19, with the live action starting at 17:00 local time.
MSC Frankfurt started by beating Frankfurt and Turk FC Hattersheim am Main in the group stage, with Shahid Afridi in great batting form. Adel Khan’s half-century and Nafees Buttar Ahmad’s five-wicket haul then saw them beat favourites FCA 04 Darmstadt in the semi-final to book their place in this match.
Turk FC Hattersheim am Main bounced back from their opening defeat to book their place in the semi-finals, however. FCA Darmstadt’s shock loss to SV Wiesbaden meant an unexpected ‘easier’ semi-final against Turk FC Hattersheim am Main and victory ensured they will compete in the final.
