The tournament is being conducted by Dubai Cricket Council at the ICC Global Academy.
Batting first, Phoniex Medicine made 172 for 8. Usman Zarbadshah scored 52, Rohan Mustafa made 59 while Khawar Baluch remained not out on 21. Gopal Jasapara took 2 for 30.
In reply, Nucaf Tellicherry fell short by nine runs, scoring 163 for 8. Mohammed Asif Iqbal hit 91 and Amjad Gujjar took 3 for 38.
Phoenix Medicine lost Fahad Ansari quickly to Kasim Butt but Usman Zarbadshah played a very responsible knock as wickets kept falling at regular intervals.
He first played himself in and then played some good shots to make 52 runs in 45 balls in which he hit seven fours and a six.
Rohan Mustafa was the other batsman who continued to build on the good work playing a responsible knock in the middle of the innings making a superb 59 runs off 41 balls with three sixes and an equal number of fours to take Phoenix Medicine to a formidable total of 172 runs.
In reply, Nucaf Tellicherry got off to an excellent start as openers Mohammed Asif and Jayaprakash put on 85 runs in 10 overs for the first wicket and Tellicherry was heading in the right direction.
However as soon as Jayapraksh was run-out the rest of the batting crumbled as Asif Mumtaz and Amjad Gujjar sliced through the Nucaf batting restricting them to 163 runs. Mohammed Asif was unfortunate to be on the losing side as his brilliant 91 included four sixes and 11 fours.
Fly Emirates cruise straight through to the finals as they have the best net run rate of +2.83 while Yogi group +0.37 and Phoenix Medicine +0.36 will face in the semi-final.
Brief scores: Phoniex Medicine beat Nucaf Tellicherry by 9 runs Phoniex Medicine 172 for 8 (Usman Zarbadshah 52, Rohan Mustafa 59, Khawar Baluch 21*, Gopal Jasapara 2 for 30). Nucaf Tellicherry 163 for 8 (Mohammed Asif Iqbal 91, Jayprakash Shetty 18, Asif Mumtaz 2 for 18, Amjad Gujjar 3 for 38).
