Presentations coming up...
Earlier in the match, Ambati Rayudu and Akeal Hosein had a 49-run partnership, but their innings lacked momentum. Wickets fell regularly, and it was only thanks to Tim David's late surge that MI Emirates reached close to 150 runs. Mohammad Amir took three wickets for Desert Vipers, while Matheesha Pathirana and Luke Wood took two each. Wanindu Hasaranga took one wicket and bowled well, while Shaheen Shah Afridi went wicketless and was expensive.
The Desert Vipers were off to a shaky start and kept losing wickets at timely intervals. The score they had to chase was low, though. They were on the losing side, but Sherfane Rutherford's quickfire knock of 35 runs turned the tables. Shaheen Afridi later played a knock of 17 runs off 12 deliveries to get their side over the line on the very last ball! In three overs, Rohid Khan claimed three wickets for 21 runs for MI Emirates. Fazalhaq Farooqi and Dwayne Bravo each took a pair of wickets as they kept things close. Waqar Salamkheil also took a wicket.
What a contest of cricket we have noticed here at Dubai International Cricket Stadium! The game went down to the very last ball, and it was Shaheen Afridi who got three runs off it to get the Desert Vipers over the line! They get their second win of the competition. MI Emirates put up a good fight, though, but couldn't pull off the victory!
