Fine Legs through to Bronze final

Batting first, Fine Legs' successfully defended their score of 48 after restricting Rumaan to 36 runs, ensuring they enjoyed a 12-run win over their opponents, and a place in the final.

Dubai - Fine Legs will be participating in the Bronze Final of the Ramadan Tournament held at the ICC Academy at Dubai Sports City after they overcame a hotly-contested affair with Rumaan.
Batting first, Fine Legs' successfully defended their score of 48 after restricting Rumaan to 36 runs, ensuring they enjoyed a 12-run win over their opponents, and a place in the final.
That performance against Rumaan came after Fine Legs overcame the Ultimate Fighters (10), winning by 37 runs.
Oxford Marine are through to the Gold Finals after a 31-run win over Team Valtorque. Restricted to only 37 runs from their eight overs, Oxford's bowlers needed to deliver when called upon and they did just that, ensuring Valtorque could manage just six runs from their eight overs.
The GM Cricket Academy (57) will face off against Al Futtaim Logistics (45) in the Silver Division Final after both teams won their matches against Abela and Co. (33) and SFS (39) respectively. The latter stages of any tournament can bring about nerves in even the most adept of players, but the adrenaline rose further for both the Acosca Raiders and NBF, who both matched the others' total of 44 runs.
With a super over required to separate the two, it was Acosca who showed great resilience to triumph over NBF after they scored eight runs in their super over while their opponents could only muster a single run.
