Match Details
11:58 PM IST, 10:28 PM Local Time: Superb all-round performance from Bangla Tigers as they register their first win of the season. The win was obviously set-up by the batters and particularly Jordan Cox who made 90 off 36 balls to help the Bangla Tigers finish with 143/4. However, the Tigers backed it up with a pretty good bowling performance to seal a 20-run victory.
The Gladiators started the chase with a big opening over which fetched 16 runs but Haider Ali struck off his very first delivery to remove Tom Kohler-Cadmore. Then, the pair of Nicholas Pooran and Andre Fletcher looked dangerous as they produced some quite a few massive sixes. Against the run of play, Dominic Drakes dismissed Fletcher in the fourth over while Daniel Sams got rid of the dangerous Pooran a few deliveries later. Just as one thought the Gladiators still had a chance with Andre Russell there in the middle, the Jamaican couldn't get going at all as he ended up with a below-average 11 off 17. At the other end, Fabian Allen tried his best and he finished with 40 off 16 but it wasn't enough as the team fell short by 20 runs!
