That's all from the first match of today's triple header in the Abu Dhabi T10 League, folks! Switch tabs and join us for the second game which is about to undergo. For now, this is me Deepak Prakash signing off on behalf of scorer/analyst Raju Khariya. CHEERS!
Mohammad Nabi (Ajman Bolts Captain): "Yeah, really happy to win our second game. It was a pretty good total we put on the board, and the bowlers did a great job by hitting the right areas. That’s why we came out on top in this match.
(On Mohsin) Yeah, he's been very attentive, listening closely to where and how to bowl. I set the field, and he bowled perfectly in line with that field placement.
Yeah, that was a good sign. Alex Hales has found his form, and we really needed some runs at the top and a solid powerplay. That’s why we were able to put a big total on the board."

Alex Hales (Player of the Match): "It’s been a tough start to the tournament with the first few games offering a bit of swing and seam, which I found quite challenging, to be honest. But today, the pitch was really good, and I managed to middle a couple of shots early on, which set me up nicely for the rest of the innings.
I think it’s all about sticking to the basics and finding that confidence. T10 is very much a confidence game, and I have to admit, at the start of the tournament, I came in a bit rusty, having not played cricket for a month or two. I probably felt a little cold. But tonight, I managed to middle a few, and that has given me some confidence. In a fickle format like T10, you just have to trust that things will turn around."

Time for the post-match presentation....
6:48 PM IST, 5:18 PM Local Time: An impressive batting display followed by disciplined bowling from the Ajman Bolts saw them thump the Bengal Tigers by 31 runs, securing back-to-back wins in the ongoing T10 event.
After being invited to bat first, Ajman Bolts and Alex Hales went berserk from the word go and provided a solid start to Ajman Bolts. The pair added 77 runs for the opening wicket, with Daniel falling prey to Shakib after scoring 27 runs.
Hales paired up with James Neesham and continued his merry ways and notched up his fifty off just 20 balls. Bangla Tigers bowlers looked mediocre against Bolts as their key bowler Rashid Khan went wicketless and conceded 30 runs in his 2-over quota. Hales finished the innings with six and remained unbeaten on 75 runs off just 30 balls, while Neesham contributed an unbeaten 20 runs off 13 balls, helping Bolts post a hefty total.
In pursuit of a hefty 133 runs, Bangla Tigers never looked comfortable in the chase as they kept losing wickets at regular intervals from the outset. Mohammad Shahzad (6), Dasun Shanaka (1), and Liam Livingstone (6) were sent back to the hut in single digits. Hazratullah Zazai started aggressively but couldn't settle for long, departing for 9-ball 17 runs.
Iftikhar Ahmed (21 off 8) looked in sublime touch but unfortunately, lost his wicket in the form of a run-out. Shakib Al Hasan (29* off 19) walked in at number six but looked sluggish in the middle as he struggled to score runs rapidly initially. He managed to score a few boundaries at the tail end but it was too late by then as Tigers fell 31 runs short of Bolts' total.
Muhammad Mohsin bagged a couple of wickets for the Bolts, while Mujeeb Ur Rahman, James Neesham, and Dunith Wellalage contributed one wicket each.
Stay tuned for the presentation....
