Kritik und Lob » 19th over bowled by Gareth Batty. A straight d

Its the championship weekend for the League of Legends Championship Series (LCS) and the North American and European third-place matches will kick-start it all. The North American side will feature Immortals against Counter Logic Gaming and the European side will pit Unicorns of Love against H2K. All teams will enter with the hopes of ending the summer split on a high note after a hard-fought season and playoffs run.Immortals against Counter Logic GamingBoth teams will enter this weeks matchup with disappointment slowing their momentum. Immortals was in the conversation for the majority of the split as the secondary juggernauts in North America. The team was stacked from top to bottom, with the elite duo of Kim Reignover Yeu-jin and Heo Huni Sung-hoon to anchor the lineup. However, a finals berth was not in the cards. Immortals lost a nail-biting set to the red-hot Cloud9 team and now look to recoup some of their losses.Counter Logic Gaming (CLG) was the wild card in the playoffs picture. The team overcame some early inconsistencies in the summer split to look like a true threat entering the playoffs. It was reported that the team was adapting well to the new patch and that its strategy and overall cohesion were at an all-time high. Then it fell apart. Secondary carry Choi Huhi Jae-hyuns weakness -- a small champion pool -- was exposed and the rest of the CLG lineup struggled to find an answer to Team SoloMids pressure.Immortals should enter the matchup as the easy favorite. The lineup fell to a team on fire, but they still played up to their own standards. CLGs whimper against Team SoloMid was concerning. They fell apart at the worst possible time and a week may not be enough for a full rejuvenation. Look for consistent dominating lane phases from Immortals due to Reignovers well-timed rotations and a snowball victory.H2K against Unicorns of LoveFor H2K, this is still a high-stakes matchup. With Worlds consideration and points on the line, it borders on a must-win situation. However, last weeks loss to Splyce was an eye-opener. H2K lost even though it played the way it intended to operate: slowly and meticulously. Every game, with the exception of the last one, was a grind to control objectives and secure map control and H2K still lost the set. Not only that, but H2K lost to a snowballing Gnar twice.Unicorns of Love (UoL) played well last week against G2 Esports. The team traded leads and played strong when the set started, but crumbled when the pressure was at its peak. If not for a rather fortunate Baron steal in game 1, UoL would have been the team with an overwhelming 2-0 lead and the potential to be a finalist for the European LCS. But it was not meant to be and the Unicorns are now slated for the consolation series against H2K.This set may be a coin flip. H2Ks loss in a matchup and pace that favored it is a huge red flag and UoLs strong showing against arguably the best team in Europe was encouraging. However, H2Ks raw talent should never be discredited and UoLs overreliance on early momentum means victory sometimes flies out of reach. This series will go to whichever team can dictate the pace, and my moneys on H2K.China Jerseys For Sale .

Authentic Jerseys For Sale . -- There were so many positives from the Orlando Magics first victory of the season that it was hard for coach Jacque Vaughn to stop praising his players.Surrey 279 for 9 (Sangakkara 130*, Roy 42) beat Northamptonshire 276 (Kleinveldt 76*, Cobb 66, Dernbach 4-39) by one wicketScorecard Kumar Sangakkaras masterful 130 not out saw Surrey into the semi-finals of the Royal London Cup in a thrilling one-wicket win over Northamptonshire achieved off the last ball of the match.With Surrey looking likely to crumble in a lower-order collapse, Sangakkara finally found a partner in No.11 Jade Dernbach and the pair found the 27 runs needed for victory.Chasing 277, Surrey slid from 234 for 5 to 250 for 9 with two catches behind the wicket and two run outs as Sangakkkara looked on in frustration from the non-strkers end.Twelve were needed from the final over and Sangakkara leapt across his stumps to paddle sweep Azharullah into the sightscreen for six over the wicketkeepers head. It was an extraordinary shot at such a tense moment. Then with two to get from the final ball - although one would have brought Surrey victory by virtue of fewer wickets lost - he carved a boundary wide of point.It left Northamptonshire heartbroken after a fine comeback in the field and Ben Duckett rueing his dropped catch of Sangakkara on just 7. It came straight to him, albeit firmly, in the gully. It was one a number of moments Northants were left to look back on with regret in the field in a match in which they conceded 13 wides and seven no balls.David Ripley, Northants coach, said: Im very proud of the effort but we made too many individual errors throughout the game - soft dismissals, catches went down, too many extras. But as a collective effort to fight our way back was phenomenal.With three overs to go we were favourites, so its a double-whammy to have it taken away from us. Kumar was sensational in everything he did and it was a wonderful innings.It appeared Surrey were cruising to victory after the chase swung their way in the 21st over. Richard Gleeson was brought back to bowl it. He pulled up with a side strain and left the field. Alex Wakely tried to finish the over but it proved a complete disaster with two high no-balls that were swung for six and four by Sangakkara. Anotheer boundary saw 24 come off Wakelys four legal deliveries.dddddddddddd It left 129 to get in 29 overs.Sangakkara was composed and classy, working the bowling around and taking very few risks. A slog sweep against Graeme White brought him fifty in 61 balls. After flogging Wakely, he reached a third one-day century for Surrey in 116 balls. It did not seem then that it would take all of his experience to haul Surrey over the line.Northants were bowled out for 276 with an over to spare - and their total looked light on a good batting surface. Josh Cobb gave them a steady start having lost the toss but regular wickets fell throughout the innings and the hosts were in danger of posting a total well below par without Rory Kleinveldts fine late-order effort.Kleinveldts 76 in 62 balls gave the Northants innings a late revival. It was flagging at 227 for 9 but he found Azharullah for steady company and he blocked up an end to allow Kleinveldt to find the boundary. He carved Tom Curran wide of extra cover, and slapped a six over midwicket.It followed Cobbs 66. He injected some life into the innings in the 19th over bowled by Gareth Batty. A straight drive beat mid-off for four, a waist-high full toss slapped over midwicket for another boundary and the subsequent free hit was launched far over long-on as 19 came from the over.Cobb made his way to a smart half century in 54 balls but Tom Curran returned to angle a delivery into his middle-and-off stumps to break a stand with Alex Wakely worth 69. Wakely fell four overs later to a superb cutter from Sam Curran.Cobb and Wakely began to move the Northants innings along after Jade Dernbach claimed two early and very important wickets, both of them bowled to the batsmans strengths. A ball on the pads of Richard Levi was flicked into the hands of James Burke at deep square leg; another outside off stump to Ben Duckett was slapped to cover diving forward, Burke again the catcher. Dernbach returned to finish the innings off and claim 4 for 39. ' ' '
