Auckland Aces crumble against the Titans

Titans batted first and were very organized the way they played and set a mammoth target of 173 which was going to be a tough chase for Auckland who crumbled from the start of their innings  and at one point were 68/9 but the way Andre Adams played towards the end got them to a respectable total so this at least would not end up hurting them bad with regards to the net run rate.Below is the full scorecard of the match
