Royal Desert Champions beat UAE Bulls by 6 wickets
Royal Desert Champions won the toss and chose to bowl. UAE Bulls, the defending champions, made 123 for 7 in their 10 overs. Royal Desert Champions needed 124 and got there with five balls to spare, finishing on 124 for 4 after 9.1 overs.
The league named Sherfane Rutherford player of the match for 40 off 13 balls. It was the Champions' first win after three defeats. Naseem Shah is the only Pakistani in their squad.
The loss is bad news for UAE Bulls, who have seven Pakistanis, including Shadab Khan and Mohammad Amir. They have now lost three of their four games. Every Pakistani in the league, team by team, is on our Pakistani players list.
Yas Lions beat Arabian Aces by 29 runs
Arabian Aces won the toss and chose to bowl. Yas Lions made 132 for 5, the third highest total of the season so far, by our count of the feed. Only United Tigers' 140 for 6 and Emirates Eagles' 137 for 7 are higher.
Arabian Aces needed 133 at 13.3 an over and finished on 103 for 7. Jason Holder, the Yas Lions captain, was player of the match for 21 off 7 balls and 3 wickets for 11 runs.
Yas Lions have now won three in a row. They are the only side in the league with no Pakistani player. Arabian Aces have one, Salman Irshad.
Points table after 12 matches
Every team has now played four games. This is the official table after both games on 11 November, including net run rate.
| Team | Played | Won | Lost | Points | Net run rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| United Tigers | 4 | 3 | 1 | 6 | +2.566 |
| Yas Lions | 4 | 3 | 1 | 6 | +1.400 |
| Emirates Eagles | 4 | 2 | 2 | 4 | -0.495 |
| Arabian Aces | 4 | 2 | 2 | 4 | -0.691 |
| UAE Bulls | 4 | 1 | 3 | 2 | -1.424 |
| Royal Desert Champions | 4 | 1 | 3 | 2 | -1.512 |
United Tigers stay top only on net run rate. The top team after the league goes straight to the final on 20 November, and the second and third teams play a qualifier the same day. The bottom three go out. The full format is on our Abu Dhabi T10 format page, and the race is broken down on our playoff race page.
The table is now very tight. Only 4 points separate first from last, and each team still has six league games left. A single win would lift UAE Bulls or Royal Desert Champions level with the two sides on 4 points. For Pakistani fans, the UAE Bulls are the side to watch, because seven of their squad are Pakistani and they need wins quickly.
