Abu Dhabi T10 League 2022 Most Runs and Most Wickets standings: Peter Hatzoglou and Andrew Tye climb up the ladder – Updated after Match 17

Team Abu Dhabi have beaten the Morrisville Samp Army in the 17th match of the ongoing Abu Dhabi T10 League. Defending just 100 runs, the Abu Dhabi bowlers never let their guard down to restrict the MSA side to just 82 and win the game by 18 runs.

This win has kept Abu Dhabi’s hopes of making it to the next round alive and the team has now climbed to fourth position in the points table.

Meanwhile, a loss for Morrisville Samp Army is a massive dent in their net run rate. But the fact that they have already won three matches doesn’t hurt them much. However, their net run rate has now gone below the New York Strikers and they have slumped to third place in the points table.

As far as the match is concerned, after opting to bat first, Team Abu Dhabi lost their explosive opener Alex Hales on the first ball of the match. But Chris Lynn (35) and James Vince (44*) stitched a 71-run stand. Sensible play from them on a tough pitch meant that they managed to post 100 runs in their 10 overs.

In response, the Morrisville Samp Army were never in the chase as their star-studded batting line-up collapsed like anything. Johnson Charles, Moeen Ali, David Miller, and Shimron Hetmyer didn’t add much to the total and were left reeling at 28/8 at one stage.

However, Basil Hameed fought till the end for them to avoid embarrassment. But he was left with too much to do by the batters.
