Rahmanullah Gurbaz has been chosen as 'Player of the Match' for his 69(29)
A thumping 49-run win for Delhi Bulls which takes them to no.2 in points table. After early breakthrough of Paul Stirling, Liam Livingstone and Phil Salt gave them a sparkling start as Team Abu Dhabi putting a firm reply to the target but hat-trick from Adil Rashid totally shut down the gates for Abu Dhabi. Phil Salt (25) and Livingstone (29) were only batsmen for Abu Dhabi to reach to double figures which tells a story itself. After Adil Rashid's hat-trick it was matter of time as lower order batters hardly put up any show. Earlier it was brilliance from Rahmanullah Gurbaz 69(29) and Sherfane Rutherford 52(22) whose 37-ball 105 run partnership completely demolishes the attack of Abu Dhabi. In last few overs Abu Dhabi restricted the damage but Delhi Bulls takes the total to 135. But important figure for Aby Dhabi to reach to 115 to remain in Top-2 but they couldn't. So that's it from league stage. It's time for playoffs.
