19.6Omarzai to R Arman6
Six runs. SIX! Azmatullah Omarzai to Rashid Khan. Off cutter back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. MI Emirates finish their innings with a respectable total after recovering from an early collapse, as the Gulf Giants dominated the first ten overs with disciplined bowling, picking up four wickets and keeping the scoring rate in check before Kieron Pollard and Nicholas Pooran steadied the ship with a crucial partnership that shifted the momentum. Pollard's vital half-century, including 4 sixes, anchored the innings, while Nuwan Thushara and Azmatullah Omarzai impressed with two wickets apiece, and we'll be back shortly for the Giants run chase.
