down the track and hoicked to deep midwicket. Quetta win by seven wickets. What a cruise...
United vs Gladiators, 11th Match at Sharjah, Feb 11 2016 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Gladiators won by 7 wickets (with 23 balls remaining)
11:06pm: Quetta take the top spot from Peshawar. Their bowlers set the match up, Sarfraz then led the chase of 118 with a busy fifty.
Elliott, Man of the Match: It has been an enjoyable experience. Passionate players in Quetta. The ball stopped a touch on batsmen. The skipper did well to knock the total off. Viv is an inspirational guy.
Watson: Yes, it seemed to be in control, until I played that bad option. I started the bad flow of runs for us. After winning two in a row, we should have played better. 160 should have been par.
Shehzad: I was not hitting the ball well in New Zealand. I came here with an open mind. Whoever has been selected for the World Cup, best of luck. Quetta have a good management and players. We have a good laugh in the dressing room. The dressing-room atmosphere is the key for me. That is why we are getting the results
That is all we have for you. Goodbye and good night
