Kjorn Ottley, Imran Khan guide Premium Americans to first win in American Premier League 2023

Premium Americans opener Kjorn Ottley scored a maverick fifty to build the foundation for his team. Namibia international Gerhard Erasmus added 21-ball 35 in the middle and his innings was laced with four boundaries and a six. The Americans posted a mediocre score of 156 for 4.

In response, Trinidad and Tobago-based leg-spinner Imran Khan demolished the Premium Paks' batting order with incredible figures of 5 for 18 from four overs. Gurbaksh Singh picked a couple of wickets as the opposition skittled out for 102 in 18 overs.

In another result of the day, tight and parsimonious bowling from Premium Indians led Sunny Patel (3 for 14) to hold the Windies at 98 for 7 in a paltry 105-run chase.
