Team Abu Dhabi beat Northern Warriors by 21 runs
That's it from this entertaining contest. The next match is coming your way shortly and it is the clash between Delhi Bulls and Bangla Tigers. Please switch tabs and do join us for all the action. Cheers!
Liam Livingstone, the winning captain of Team Abu Dhabi, is also the Player of the Match. The Englishman smiles and says that it was nice to get some runs. Adds that he was trying to attack from the word go and this is how they want to play. Hopes to keep up the good work and play a positive brand of cricket.
Presentation time...
Team Abu Dhabi will be pleased with their overall game this evening. The batting did stutter early in the evening but Liam Livingstone's scintillating knock made sure that they amassed 52 runs from the last two overs and posted a big total on the board. Dropping the Team Abu Dhabi skipper on 3 proved to be a big moment in this match and Norther Warriors will be regretting it massively. The bowling from the Men in Yellow was also mostly on the money. Marchant de Lange once again impressed in his two overs by picking 2 wickets for just 6 runs and Danny Briggs also picked a brace by conceding only 15 in his quota of two overs.
A comfortable victory in the end for Team Abu Dhabi. Their bowling started well in the first two overs of the Powerplay and didn't allow a strong start to the Warriors. Losing Moeen Ali for a golden duck was a big blow to Northern Warriors. Kennar Lewis expressed himself with his muscular strokes but his departure created massive scoreboard pressure on the other batters. Rovman Powell fought for a while but the asking rate kept on mounting and he ended up throwing away his wicket as well. Second win for Team Abu Dhabi and they have strengthened their position on top of the points table.

OUT! Philip Salt has pulled off a fine stumping! Smart bowling from Danny Briggs and the combined effort of the bowler and the keeper has removed the danger man.

He appeals and it has been referred upstairs. The replays find that Kennar Lewis has jumped inside the crease for a moment as he lost his balance and at that very time, Salt has whipped the bails off. Wow. Smooth glove work.

IN THE AIR... Safe! A near-collision there too. It's all happening. Short and around off, getting big on the batsman, Kennar tries to pull but gets a top edge. It's going to fall in no man's land at square leg but Overton, the bowler, decides to run after it. He puts in a slide but the ball falls wide of him. There is a fielder charging in from the deep and he does well to jump and avoid the collision with Jamie. Two runs taken.
