Lakeview Lions reached the City Premier T20 final with a one-wicket win over Kesarganj Kings on Friday night, after No. 9 batter Pranav Iyer hit the last ball of the match for four.

Chasing 171, the Lions needed 14 from the final over bowled by Kings' left-arm seamer Aman Thakur. A six, a four and a single brought it down to three off the last ball. Thakur's attempted yorker came out as a full toss, and Iyer drove it between extra cover and mid-off.
