3.2 to JJ Roy, Comes down the track and tries an unusual flick across the line and finds short midwicket to perfection! Much-needed breakthrough for MI Emirates! Was a shortish ball zinging back at him, Tajinder times his jump to perfection, and takes a breathtaking catch! It was a leg-cutter and he tried to heave it across the line, not able to find the requisite elevation. 35/1 3.5 to Fakhar Zaman, oh, that' a brute of a delivery! Fazalhaq Farooqi has brought his team right back in the powerplay with two big wickets, got both openers! That was an incredible delivery, shortish length and came in and then whizzed away late, wrecking the middle-stump and pegging Vipers back! That will charge up the whole MI unit! Fakhar tried to burgle it leg-side but couldn't pick up the line cleanly. 36/2 | ||||||||||

14.3 to MDE Holden, set man departs! jockeys across his stumps and tries to scoop it past fine leg, but the fielder inside the ring pouches it comfortably, tried some improvisation and could not find the enough elevation. 125/3 | ||||||||||

17.1 to Tajinder Singh, over the wicket, landed full and slanted across off, fifth stump line, gets low and does the needful, tries to hack it over long-on Payne goes back at mid-on to take a screamer, it was slipping away from his hands but he full-stretched to gobble it up. 128/7 17.2 to AM Ghazanfar, two in two, Payne causing more pain to MI Emirates! Wheels continue to come off and looks like mere formalities left. Slower shortish ball on a tight off-stump line, he lunges at it and miscues the skier towards long-off, Roy comes in from the deep and hangs onto it brilliantly. 128/8 17.4 to R Shepherd, Third wicket in the over, Vipers are in a rush to lift the trophy! No pace to work with, delivery going across middle and he has to generate all the power, pounds it straight into the hands of Hassan at deep midwicket, the last ray of hope gone as well. 129/9 | ||||||||||
| 3.3 | 0 | 22 | 2 | 6.28 | 12 | 2 | 1 | 0 | 0 | |
5.3 to Muhammad Waseem, Vipers are on fire! Probing on a fifth stump line and Waseem couldn't resist the temptation, goes feeling for it and gets the faintest of the edges to the keeper! Khuzaima continues to cash on in his rich vein of form, knows these tracks too well, Aravind takes a sharp catch and it's a massive blow for MI Emirates! Emirates need major rebuilding work, lost too many wickets in the powerplay! Excellent bowling from a very adroit bowler who has been hitting the hard lengths and reaping the rewards. 46/3 18.3 to Muhammad Rohid, Seals the deal! Clatters the stumps with a beauty! Was a shortish ball that jagged back just enough to rattle the stumps as Rohid backs away and attempts a cut. The fireworks go off! The most consistent team this season fittingly wins the ILT20 Season 4 title! Fireworks lights up the sky in Dubai and surely the celebrations will continue till dawn!. 136/10 | ||||||||||

2.6 to ADS Fletcher, Hurls down a fiery short ball on middle, he takes it on and springs down the track in his typical flamboyant attacking ways and ends up miscuing a pull to deep midwicket, fielder in the deep didn't have to move much and it's Hasan Nawaz with a safe catch, a fiery celebration, he is very pumped up! Vital breakthrough as this is a menacing opening pair, Fletcher admonishes himself and didn't like that agressive celebration. 26/1 4.3 to T Banton, Arrows it in from over the wicket again, getting the ball lift from a length at middle, he doesn't allow batters to break free much, has been in great bowling form, and continues to make impact, he tries to lift it up and over mid-on, bat turns in his hand towards leg-side, not entirely off the middle and the clever change of pace does the trick, Sam Curran at mid-on gobbles it up. Umpires again having a word with Naseem not sure about what. Another prized scalp and Naseem is showing his quality and control on this big night. 40/2 16.1 to KA Pollard, This is going to be an interesting match-up. Comes over the wicket, lands it shortish and gets it to hold its line on off, tries to power it over deep square, substitute fielder didn't have to move a muscle to hang onto it, shortish ball hurrying him into the shot and this is a decisive moment in the game, gone for a run-a-ball 28. Looks disconsolate after perishing early in the piece, both Pakistanis, Naseem and Usman have been the star performers with the ball. 122/6 | ||||||||||

7.4 to SP Krishnamurthi, Good length and turns back in at off, he frustrates with his cunning change of pace and variations, forces batters to play those jailbreak shots, and another one perishes in an attempt to up the ante, picked the googly and tried to bully it over midwicket, Hassan Nawaz, once again with a stunning running low diving catch and Usman sends him flying kisses in admiration, Vipers are right on top! Ver dicey situation for MI Emirates!. 54/4 15.1 to Shakib Al Hasan, Around the wicket, slow and full just outside off, steps leg-side and takes the aerial route, hasn't got enough on it and has been gobbled by Khuzaima at long-off near the rope! The low-arm googly spinning away does the trick, he is picking wickets for fun. 114/5 | ||||||||||
