10:15pm A first win for ADKR over MIE in the ILT20 and it has been courtesy some strong batting show in the second half of the first innings. Sharafu has to be credited for the turnaround, given MIE had a good hold over the proceedings for most part of the first innings. And in the chase, ADKR were hardly challenged once they picked up four wickets inside the powerplay. Pollard hung around for long but could never get the next gear to take his side even close to the target. MIE ended up playing 55 dot balls, which is never good when the asking rate is above nine an over at the start of the chase

Nicholas Pooran, MIE captain: "Losing four wickets in the powerplay, it is tough. Left-right combination worked well, [Sharafu and Chase] both played well. Our bowlers came back well but at the end we gave a few easy boundaries. Powerplay is big for us, after the powerplay it gets easier. So not losing a lot of wickets in the powerplay is key. Polly batted well and it might help our NRR."

Sunil Narine, ADKR captain: "Winning the key moments helped. Batting first was a tough task but did well in the middle overs. The way we started in the powerplay with Willey and Kyle was a nice effort. Once you gets wicket in the poweplay it is easy. [On the retired out dismissal] We have Russ, you want to give him options. The guys understand their role, if Russ gets 10-12 balls in the innings, it makes a difference. We have a good collective group."

Alishan Sharafu, Player of the Match: "Pretty special, did not get many runs in the last few innings. Tried to get myself in and then cash on. Initial the wicket was tricky, on the slower side, not easy to play shots as you go in. [Retired out dismissal] Great option for teams if they have firepower down the order. You have got to do anything to win. Good option to have. Much awaited win, a lot of work went into it. The boys are going to enjoy it tonight."

So ADKR are still behind MIE in the points table, courtesy NRR. The action does come thick and fast, so do join us tomorrow for some more of this. For now, that's all we have from Abu Dhabi. This is Sudarshanan bidding y'all goodbye. Ciao folks!
