WH Abu Dhabi Gymkhana enter semis
ABU DHABI — William Hare (WH) Abu Dhabi Gymkhana drew some consolation by becoming the first team to qualify for the semifinals of the Al Hamad Contracting division-one tournament after their shock early exit from the UBL Twenty20.
They defeated Tyger by 115 runs to rack up their fifth win and finish unbeaten in Group B.
Asim Khurshid (82) and Owais Aftab (61) set them the platform with a 118-run stand for the fourth wicket that helped them put up 248 on the board. Tyger in reply could only muster 133 with Mohammed Rehan being the pick of the bowling with figures of 10-3-13-3.
Yogi Group notched up their first win with a comprehensive 157-run thrashing of New Medical Centre to throw race for the second spot wide open.
The result leaves them on two points apiece with NMC, Phoenix Medicine and Tyger after three games.
Shaiman Butt, the opener, stroked 94 and Vikrant Shetty chipped in with a valuable 70 not out for Yogi to put up a challenging 304 for eight. NMC in reply were skittled out for 147.
