New York Strikers seal top spot in the table at the Abu Dhabi T10 after a thumping seven-wicket win over Team Abu Dhabi at Zayed Cricket Stadium on Friday.
Wahab Riaz grabbed three wickets while Rashid Khan and Tom Hartley bagged two each as Abu Dhabi slumped to 78-8 after being sent into bat.
The Strikers then lost Paul Stirling second ball of the innings to Naveen ul Haq but UAE international Muhammad Waseem showed his class with a 20-ball unbeaten 45 to ease his side over the line with 15 balls to spare.
Waseem smashed five sixes and two fours, while Kieron Pollard finished the game in style by hoisting Andrew Tye over long-on fence for six.
Earlier, Hartley provided the breakthrough for the Strikers by removing openers Chris Lynn (six) and Alex Hales (who top-scored for his team with 17) to leave Abu Dhabi at 38-2 before Riaz (3-9) and Rashid (2-12) gatecrashed the party to put their team firmly in the driving seat.
Meanwhile, Mohammad Taimur grabbed four wickets for Delhi Bulls to help crush Chennai Braves by 31 runs and move up from bottom of the table to fifth after their dead rubber.
The off-spinner from Gujaranwala struck thrice in his first over. He knocked back the off-stump of Kobe Herft (nine) with his first ball, then removed Carlos Brathwaite (four) caught and bowled, and James Fuller thanks to a catch by Tim David at long-on.
Dan Lawrence held the Braves inning together with a 25-ball 45 in their score of 88-7 in reply to the Bulls 119-4.
Taimur returned with excellent figures of 4-9 from his two overs while Mitchell Stanley chipped in with 2-16.
In the night's other game, Samp Army secured victory over Northern Warriors by five wickets with nine balls to spare.
That result moved them briefly to the top of the table ahead of the late game between the Strikers and Abu Dhabi.
Shimron Hetmyer top scored for Samp Army with an 18-ball 45 that contained five sixes and two fours.
He shared a 71-run stand for the second wicket with opener Karim Janat who slammed three sixes in a 12-ball 25 after Johnson Charles was out for a first ball duck.
Adam Hose stroked 54 from 25 balls with five sixes and four fours in the Warriors total 117-7.
On Saturday, the Strikers meet Samp Army in Qualifier 1 at 4pm followed by Team Abu Dhabi versus Deccan Gladiators in the eliminator.

The more serious side of specialty coffee
While the taste of beans and freshness of roast is paramount to the specialty coffee scene, so is sustainability and workers’ rights.
The bulk of genuine specialty coffee companies aim to improve on these elements in every stage of production via direct relationships with farmers. For instance, Mokha 1450 on Al Wasl Road strives to work predominantly with women-owned and -operated coffee organisations, including female farmers in the Sabree mountains of Yemen.
Because, as the boutique’s owner, Garfield Kerr, points out: “women represent over 90 per cent of the coffee value chain, but are woefully underrepresented in less than 10 per cent of ownership and management throughout the global coffee industry.”
One of the UAE’s largest suppliers of green (meaning not-yet-roasted) beans, Raw Coffee, is a founding member of the Partnership of Gender Equity, which aims to empower female coffee farmers and harvesters.
Also, globally, many companies have found the perfect way to recycle old coffee grounds: they create the perfect fertile soil in which to grow mushrooms.

What is hepatitis?
Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver, which can lead to fibrosis (scarring), cirrhosis or liver cancer.
There are 5 main hepatitis viruses, referred to as types A, B, C, D and E.
Hepatitis C is mostly transmitted through exposure to infective blood. This can occur through blood transfusions, contaminated injections during medical procedures, and through injecting drugs. Sexual transmission is also possible, but is much less common.
People infected with hepatitis C experience few or no symptoms, meaning they can live with the virus for years without being diagnosed. This delay in treatment can increase the risk of significant liver damage.
There are an estimated 170 million carriers of Hepatitis C around the world.
The virus causes approximately 399,000 fatalities each year worldwide, according to WHO.
