That's a wrap on Match 17 of this league. Do join us tomorrow for another game where we are assured of good weather and hopefully a full game of cricket.

For now, this is Ayan Chatterjee signing off on behalf of my co-commentator Deepak Prakash alongside scorer/analyst Chandan Kumar Singh. Stay safe, happy, and cool. Goodnight and CHEERS!
10:30 PM IST: The inevitable has happened. The play has been abandoned due to rain as both teams will share the spoils with a point each. The Dubai Capitals will feel they get away with a point from where they were when rain intervened.
With the match reduced to 19 overs a side due to an hour and 15-minute delay due to rain, the Dubai Capitals inserted to bat first, lost wickets in clumps. None of the batters could get to double figures as they were reduced to 17/4 after 5 overs. Rovman Powell (5*) and Sikandar Raza (1*) were at the crease when the rain came back with sheer intensity and never relented which forced the umpires to call off play.
Junaid Siddique and Naveen-ul-Haq were on fire as they
exploited the bowler-friendly conditions. Both got two wickets apiece. Junaid
was on a hat trick at one stage. But the rain intervened and saved the day for
the Dubai Capitals.
So, both the Sharjah Warriors and Dubai Capitals share the points as the weather is the winner at the end of the day.
9:27 PM IST: The rain has gotten heavier and the ground staff are bringing in more covers.
9:12 PM IST: Here we go, the rain god🌧🌧 is back again. The groundsmen are quick with the covers.
