Super Kings: Unbeaten<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

South Kanto Super Kings and East Kanto Sunrisers both collected two wins on the second day of the Japan Premier League to put themselves in a strong position to reach the final.<\/p>\n

The Super Kings were twice indebted to captain Sabaorish Ravichandran for his runs, and seam bowler Kohei Kubota for his wickets.<\/p>\n

In Round Three Ravichandran\u2019s 44* off 34 balls enabled his team to successfully chase the a total of 111 after Kubota\u2019s 3\/15 had helped bowl the West Kanto Hurricanes all out. A win by six wickets<\/a> was the perfect start to the day for the Super Kings.<\/p>\n

Takada: Captains Innings<\/p><\/div>\n

Over on SICG Two the Sunrisers recoverd from a major wobble against the Kansai Chargers thanks to a captains innings from Tsuyoshi Takada and a pugnacious knock from Abhipray Dewan.<\/p>\n

The Chargers struggled in their first matches in the JPL, managing just 101\/6, although they had a spring in their step when restricting the Sunrisers to 13\/3 in the opening exchanges. However Takada (34) and Dewan (47*) combined to steady the Sunrisers with a partnership of 77 to take the team home by five wickets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In Round Four Ravichandran was at it again with 52 form 33 balls to propel his team to 172\/6, although it was a run-a-ball 61 from Alex Patmore anchored the innings and was the highest individual score of the tournament so far.<\/p>\n

North Kanto: Battling<\/p><\/div>\n

South Kanto were rampant in defending their total as Kubota\u2019s 3\/13 and 3\/24 for Hiroshige Murakawa ran through the Chargers to earn a huge win by 116 runs<\/a> and virtually confirm their place in the final.<\/p>\n

The Sunrisers and North Kanto Lions then played out a tight game on SICG Two that went to the final over. The defending champions started well as Dhugal Bedingfield\u2019s 51 laid a solid platform before the Lions came charging back. A hat-trick for Ali Raza derailed the innings and his 4\/13 meant the Sunrisers were all out for 141 after just 18 overs.<\/p>\n

In the chase Hanif Khan (28) and Prabath Dhanushka (35) put on 56 for the third wicket and the game looked in the balance. Neel Date (2\/21) dismissed them both before Naveen Negi, with 14 needed off the final over, held his nerve to give his team an eight-run win<\/a>.<\/p>\n
