Chasing the target, Andries Gous hit a breezy 42 off 20 balls with four boundaries and three sixes.

In the other match, Deccan Gladiators' Tom Kohler-Cadmore's blistering knock of 69 off just 19 balls studded with a shower of eight sixes and four boundaries, and Nuwan Thushara's deadly four-wicket spell blew away Northern Warriors by eight wickets in the 21st match of the Abu Dhabi T10 at the Zayed Cricket Stadium.

It was another spectacle from Kohler-Cadmore, who had also scored an unbeaten 44 against Chennai Braves in 19 balls with three sixes and five boundaries to ensure his team a ten-wicket win in 6.1 overs. This knock against Northern Warriors was a master class from this England wicket-keeper batsman on how to hit sixes with ease. Each of his eight sixes was hit with immaculate timing and power.

Northern Warriors who were asked to bat first could muster only 100 for 6 due to Thushara's spell of four wickets for just 12 runs. James Neesham (31 in 23 balls, with two fours and two sixes) and skipper Angelo Matthews (29 in 18 balls, with a four and two sixes) were the top scorers for NW. Tom's explosive knock helped Gladiators chase it down in 6.1 overs only, with eight wickets in hand. This win helped Deccan Gladiators unseat Samp Army from the top of the table in just a few minutes after the first match of the day.
