End of over. Over 20. 16 runs. Bowler: Mustafizur Rahman. MI Emirates: 137/8(rr 6.85)
19.6Rahman to R Shepherd6
Six runs. SIX! Mustafizur Rahman to Romario Shepherd. Off cutter length ball, down leg side on the front foot Slog, well timed in the air under control over deep backward square leg for 6 runs. That brings us to the end of the first innings, and MI Emirates have posted a decent total on the board. Jonny Bairstow was the standout performer with a superb knock, shouldering the bulk of the scoring, but he found little support from the rest of the batting line-up as wickets fell at regular intervals. Credit must go to the Dubai Capitals bowlers, who were exceptional in their execution. They kept a tight lid on the run rate and consistently struck at crucial moments to remove key batters cheaply. Mustafizur Rahman was the standout, producing a brilliant three-wicket spell, while Muhammad Jawadullah provided excellent support with two important breakthroughs. Join us shortly for the run chase.
