So, that's it for this game, everyone. We hope you enjoyed this live coverage. Do switch tabs and follow the second game of the day between the Bangla Tigers and the Delhi Bulls which gets underway in few minutes from now. Anirudh and Ashok will steer you through that game along with Soumarya. But for now, this is Navjeevan signing off.
Nicholas Pooran (Deccan Gladiators Captain): "Very proud, we sat and talked about what we were doing wrong. After the toss, we went on to post 140 odd and that was good. The boys were brilliant. Yeah, he (Nuwan Thushara) is a fantastic T10 player. He is a good bowler; once he is confident, he will do very well. He just needs to get more opportunities he will do great." 
Andre Fletcher (Player of the Match): "As I said earlier I was on the luckier side, the pitch was stopping a bit but I held myself well. T10 is fast and furious so as a batter we just have to go out there and express ourselves. Yeah, it's good to win after two losses. We just have to continue to do the good work here."

19:01 IST, 17:31 Local Time: A thumping win for Deccan Gladiators. Team Abu Dhabi have been outplayed completely today. 

After being put into bat, the Gladiators were taken off to a flier by their skipper Pooran who bashed the ball around from the start. After Pooran's dismissal, it was Fletcher (41 off 12) who played a cameo and kept the score moving for the Gladiators. Kohler-Cadmore joined in as well with a quickfire 35 off 17. It looked like the Gladiators would post something over 150 runs, but wickets fell in clusters at the backend and the Gladiators ended up posting 141 runs on the board.

Team Abu Dhabi did not have a great outing with the ball after electing to field first. Their bowlers were bashed around and they ended up leaking more than 140 runs in their 10 overs. There were some positives as they got wickets at the backend but it was another poor outing for them with the ball. Mills and Raees got a couple of wickets each, while van der Merwe and Noor got a wicket each for Team Abu Dhabi today.

Coming in to chase a stiff target of 142 runs. Team Abu Dhabi did not have an explosive start which they needed. Their top order struggled and was dismissed cheaply. du Plooy and Ingram (19) batting in the middle-order came together and stitched a decent 41-run partnership for the fourth wicket. However, it was nowhere near enough to chase down such a huge total. In the end, Team Abu Dhabi went on to lose this game by a massive margin of 63 runs.

Defending their mighty total. The Gladiators were very tight with their bowling and did not allow the Team Abu Dhabi top-order to play freely and got wickets. They kept the squeeze on throughout and helped Gladiators register a massive win today. Thushara the impact sub was the leading wicket-taker for the Gladiators as he got a couple, while Boult, Wasim, and Zahoor got a wicket each. 

With this win, the Gladiators gain a massive boost to their net run rate and move up second on the points table. On the other hand, Team Abu Dhabi stays stuck at the bottom with no wins.
