Abu Dhabi
Morrisville Samp Army continued their winning ways in Abu Dhabi T10 at the Zayed Cricket Stadium on Tuesday as they rode on Charith Asalanka’s fiery innings and a tremendous bowling effort to script a three-run win. On a slow turning track, Morrisville made the most of the dropped catches from Bulls. Charith Asalanka’s 25-ball 51-run innings further helped Samp Army post 112/5 in 10 overs.
Banton gave a good start to Delhi in chase, scoring 25 runs in 11 balls. But after Mohammad Zahid cleaned up his stumps with his first ball, the momentum began shifting towards Morrisville. With a few tight overs from Mohammad Zahid, Qais Ahmad and Karim Janat, Morrisville shackled Delhi Bulls until Tim David started turning things around once again.
Zahid bowled two wide balls in the final over, turning the contest into a nail-biting thriller. With Delhi needing five runs to win on the final ball, David was run out and Samp Army won the match by 3 runs.
