In reply, Blackburn started cautiously, made slow progress because of good bowling by the Wigan division. Then the middle-order batsmen made quick runs until Sankesh was brilliantly caught on the boundary line by the 11 year old Aditya Badge. This was followed by a run out of J Raju. Finally, Blackburn was all out for 80 runs.
