Champions League Twenty20:Auckland Aces Vs Sialkot Stallions

I feel the pitch in the second qualifier match  held between Auckland Aces and Sialkot Stallions played out much better than the first one but  the Stallions could not get many runs on the board.Since the beginning of the match none of their players looked comfortable with the bounce thanks to a superb bowling performance by the pacers from Auckland (I.E)Kyle Mills and M Bates.The way they bowled it looked asif they will not be able to even reach a competitive total but they managed 130 which looked challenging.When the Auckland Aces came to bat they looked much more comfortable and relaxed  until they had a hick up where Sarfaraz Ahmed picked up 2 wickets in one over but Anaru Kitchen made sure he took his team home with a superb batting performance towards the end
