Tallinn Stallions vs Tallinn Rising Stars, ECS T10 League - Tallinn
In-form Tallinn Stallions, the Group B winners, are favourites to seal a place in the ECS Estonia T10 Final when they take on Group A runners-up Tallinn Rising Stars in the second semi-final. The match takes place at the Estonian National Cricket and Rugby Field, Tiskre, Tallinn, on July 26 and the live action starts at 14:30 local time.
Tallinn Stallions were in fine form in their group, despite two tough fixtures on paper. Captain Saif-ur-Rehman Malik led the way with 82 and 78* as they posted 127/4 and 146/0 in two handsome wins, against Tallinn United and Eesti Tigers respectively.
Their batting form is ominous for Tallinn Rising Stars, who have already conceded 150/1 in one match in this tournament as they started with an 85-run loss to Tallinn Hippos. They recovered to beat unfancied Tartu Vikings, however – chasing 66 to win by ten wickets – to ensure they at least reached the knock-out stage.

TST Team News
Muhammad Rizwan may have bowled well enough after coming into the team last time out to keep his place for this game, but the same is not true for wayward Mohsin Naqvi.
TST Key Players
- Saif Ur Rehman Malik: Already in good form with the bat, he has carried it on this weekend by hitting 82 from 34 balls first up and 78* from 32 last time out.
- Bilal Masud: Economical with the ball and he comes in at number three with the bat – not that he was required for the latter in the most recent match.
- Ali Masood: Partners the captain at the top of the batting order as well as being a useful bowling option. He hit 47* in their 146-run unbroken partnership last time out.
TST Team Form
Tallinn Stallions dominated what on paper looked to be a tough group. They hammered 127/4 with Saif-ur-Rehman Malik hitting 82 to beat Tallinn United by 50 runs, and then walloped 146/0 – Malik getting 78* - to beat Eesti Tigers by 71 runs.

Generally consistent with their line-up this season, the Rising Stars might be unchanged from the win against Tartu Vikings, with Nazmul Haque in for Tajul Islam Somon.
TRS Key Players
- Maidul Islam: Returned to the top of the order for the second game and his steady 23* helped them to a comfortable ten-wicket win.
- Partha Kar: In good batting form this season in T20 cricket, and the all-rounder claimed 3-9 in the win against the Vikings last time out too.
- Muhammad Shoayaib: The captain top-scored in both matches on day one, hitting 19 and 35*. He is a wicket-taking bowler too, but went wicketless on Saturday.
TRS Team Form
Tallinn Rising Stars started disastrously, conceding 150/1 against Tallinn Hippos and limping to just 65/5 in reply. Partha Kar Sarathi took 3-9 and Eusuf Hassan 2-9 last time out, however, as they restricted Tartu Vikings to 65/7 and won by ten wickets.
