Last Night: Lions End Tigers Unbeaten Run, Hetmyer Powers Eagles Past Bulls
Tuesday night produced two results that tightened the table. Yas Lions defended 115 for 5 against United Tigers, who managed only 102 for 5 in reply, and the Lions won by 13 runs. Karim Janat smashed 33 off 11 balls for the Lions, while Tigers captain Fakhar Zaman made 44. It was the Tigers’ first defeat of the tournament after three straight wins.
In the second game, Emirates Eagles posted 137 for 7 and beat UAE Bulls by 25 runs. Shimron Hetmyer was Player of the Match with 76 off 28 balls, and Haider Razzaq took 4 for 20 as the Bulls were held to 112 for 7. The win lifted the Eagles to four points, level with the Lions and the Aces, while the defending champions slipped to fifth with only two points from three games.
Match 11: Royal Desert Champions vs UAE Bulls, 7:15 PM IST
Royal Desert Champions, captained by Nicholas Pooran, are the only side still without a win. They lost their opener to Emirates Eagles by 16 runs, were beaten by nine wickets by Arabian Aces, and were bowled out for 81 for 9 by United Tigers on Monday night. Pooran, Phil Salt and Sherfane Rutherford give them one of the most feared batting line-ups in the tournament, but the top order has not fired together yet. Naseem Shah, Maheesh Theekshana, Dushmantha Chameera and Chris Jordan form a strong bowling attack on paper, and they need early wickets tonight because the Bulls bat deep.
UAE Bulls, the defending champions captained by Kieron Pollard, opened the tournament by beating Yas Lions by seven wickets, with Andre Fletcher smashing 68 off 34 balls. They have lost their last two games, though, beaten by 25 runs by United Tigers and by 25 runs by Emirates Eagles on Tuesday night. Khawaja Nafay’s unbeaten 48 off 25 balls against the Tigers showed his form, and with Shadab Khan, Sunil Narine, Mohammad Amir, Khushdil Shah and Romario Shepherd in the squad, the Bulls have match-winners in every department. Another defeat tonight would leave them with two points from four games and their playoff hopes hanging by a thread.
The key battle is the Champions’ power-packed top order against the Bulls’ new-ball attack. If Pooran and Salt get going in the powerplay, the Champions can post the big total they have threatened all tournament. But Mohammad Amir and Narine have the experience to keep them quiet, and the Bulls’ own batting, led by Fletcher and Nafay, looks the more reliable of the two sides right now.
Prediction: UAE Bulls to beat Royal Desert Champions and hand the Champions a fourth straight defeat.
Match 12: Arabian Aces vs Yas Lions, 9:30 PM IST
Arabian Aces, captained by Moeen Ali, have won two straight games since losing their opener to United Tigers by 51 runs. They beat Royal Desert Champions by nine wickets, with Paul Walter smashing an unbeaten 62 off 26 balls and Phil Salt making 55 off 26, and then hammered Emirates Eagles by 10 wickets on Monday night. Walter was unstoppable in that game, hitting an unbeaten 82 off 29 balls with nine sixes as the Aces chased 108 without losing a wicket in just 6.5 overs. With Andre Russell, Liam Livingstone, Sam Billings, Imran Tahir and Alzarri Joseph in the squad, the Aces have the deepest collection of T10 match-winners in the league.
Yas Lions, captained by Jason Holder, have had a mixed start. They lost their opener to UAE Bulls, who chased down 120 for 3 with seven wickets in hand, but bounced back by chasing 115 against Emirates Eagles, winning by six wickets. On Tuesday night they produced the result of the tournament so far, defending 115 for 5 to beat unbeaten United Tigers by 13 runs. James Vince and Dasun Shanaka lead a solid batting line-up, with David Willey, Andries Gous and Karim Janat in support, while Akeal Hosein and Obed McCoy give Holder wicket-taking options with the ball.
The key battle is Paul Walter’s red-hot form against the Lions’ new-ball attack. Walter has two match-winning fifties in two games, and if he gets going again the Aces will be hard to stop. But the Lions have just beaten the table-toppers, their confidence is high, and Holder’s own all-round contribution with bat and ball could be decisive in a 10-over shootout. This is the tighter of tonight’s two games.
Prediction: Arabian Aces to beat Yas Lions in a close game and move to six points.
