Well, that was an enthralling first innings. Ekanth will be back to take you through Sharjah Warriors' chase. Don't go anywhere!
Woakes: "The new ball offered a little bit I think. I was sticking to Test lengths with the new ball and then variations as the game went on. The guys at the top need to be a little bit watchful, but if you get off to a flyer, then you keep going and look to stay ahead of the asking rate."
7.45pm Well then, that was a brilliant innings from MI Emirates. They started slow and Chris Woakes struck early. Andre Fletcher gave them momentum at the end of the powerplay before Woakes returned to send him packing as well. But Muhammad Waseem hit a brilliant 71, while Nicholas Pooran raced to 49 to set MI Emirates for a strong finish. Sharjah Warriors thought they could keep the target under 200 when Siddique struck twice in as many balls to remove Pooran and Najibullah Zadran, but the veterans Kieron Pollard and Dwayne Bravo finished strong to take them to 204.
MI Emirates need two to reach 200
Pollard pulls away late. Then as Nabi runs in again, he pulls out this time.
Right then, final over, to be bowled by Nabi. Pollard on strike. How much can MI Emirates get to? They need 13 to reach 200. Let's find out!
