🔯After winning the toss, Indonesia opted to bowl first--a decision they soon regretted as Bahrain's opener Fiaz Ahmed blazed his way to a stunning 95 off just 45 balls smashing nine fours and five sixes. Partnering with wicketkeeper-batter Prashant Kurup (31 off 19), the duo forged a dominant 141-run stand in just 13 overs.
⛄Skipper Ahmer Nasir then took charge, hammering an unbeaten 61 off 26 while Junaid Aziz and Ubaid Martuza chipped in to propel Bahrain to an imposing 216/4 in 20 overs.
🐼Gaurav Tiwari (2/46), Ketut Artawan (1/26) and Ferdinando Banunaek (1/38) were the only Indonesian bowlers to pick up wickets, but they struggled to limit the onslaught from Bahrain’s batters.
ﷺChasing 217, Indonesia faltered right from the start, losing opener Dharma Kesuma for a duck on the very first ball at the hands of Ali Dawood. The hosts never recovered as Bahrain’s disciplined bowling attack dismantled their lineup.
🍌Gaurav Tiwari (18 off 22) and Padmakar Surve (29 off 21) provided some resistance, but wickets kept tumbling at regular intervals.
𝔉Captain Danilson Hawoe (9) and Kadek Gamantika (16) also failed to convert their starts. Wicketkeeper Ahmad Ramdoni remained unbeaten on 9 as Indonesia crawled to 104/7 in their 20 overs, falling well short of the target.
Rizwan Butt (2/28), Imran Khan 🎃(2/23), and Abdul Majid Abbasi (1/7) starred with the ball, ensuring Bahrain the series victory.
ℱBahrain kicked off their tour to Indonesia with an emphatic 63-run victory in the first T20I. They repeated their dominance in the second T20I, winning by 10 wickets in a match that was reduced to five overs per side due to a wet outfield.
♈Indonesia pulled one back by winning the third match by eight wickets, denying Bahrain a clean sweep in Bali. However, Bahrain bounced back in the fourth game to take an unassailable lead in the series.
