Sigtuna CC vs Pakistanksa Foreningen, ECS T10 League
Surprise semi-final winners Sigtuna CC take on Pakisanska Foreningen in the final of the Dream 11 ECS Stockholm T10 tournament. The final takes place at the Marsta Cricket Club, Stockholm, on June 19 and is set to start at 17:00 local time.
Sigtuna finished fourth in the group stage, suffering two heavy defeats on the final day, but they bounced back against one of the teams they lost so heavily to, Kista Cricket Club, in the semi-finals. Muhammad Rehman returned to form with the bat, hitting a half-century in a total of 96/5 before they sealed a comfortable win thanks to a solid team bowling effort.
Pakisanska Foreningen were in excellent form going into the semi-finals, meanwhile, but had to contend with another in-form team in Pakisanska Foreningen/Alby Zalmi in the last four. Victory means they go into this match as favourites to seal overall glory, however.

Qurban Ali: His run-a-ball 18 at the top of the order held up an end while Rehman did the business, and he has proved a useful bowler too.

SIG Team Form
Sigtuna started the tournament well, but two defeats on the final day – posting just 62/9 and 67/6 in their two matches – meant they had to settle for fourth place. That set up a semi-final with Kista Cricket Club, who they had just lost to by 38 runs.
In the semi-finals, Muhammad Rehman’s return to batting form helped them to 96/5. Adnan Raza then led the bowling effort as Sigtuna sealed a big win.

Choudry Ali: The wicket-keeper-batsman found some good form at the top of the order and when he fires, the team goes big too.
