SIX! Junaid Siddique to Dilon Heyliger. Off cutter short, wide outside off stump on the front foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. That brings us to the end of the first innings, and Canada have posted a competitive total on the board. It wasn't the ideal start for them, losing three wickets inside the powerplay, but they recovered well through a composed and responsible knock from Harsh Thaker, who anchored the innings with a well-crafted 50. Navneet Dhaliwal provided solid support at the other end, contributing a valuable 34 runs and ensuring stability during the middle phase. Credit must also go to the UAE bowlers, who kept things tight and applied consistent pressure. Junaid Siddique was the standout performer, finishing with an impressive Five-wicket haul. Join us shortly for the run chase.

The United Arab Emirates secured a composed victory, successfully chasing down the target with five wickets in hand and two balls to spare. Despite an early struggle that saw the top order falter, Aryansh Sharma anchored the innings brilliantly, finishing unbeaten with 74 runs off 53 deliveries. He displayed great maturity by pacing the chase effectively and holding one end together, even as wickets fell at regular intervals. Sohaib Khan provided crucial momentum in the latter half of the innings, hitting 51 runs off just 29 balls. His aggressive stroke play shifted the pressure back onto Canada and brought the run chase firmly under control. For Canada, Saad Bin Zafar was exceptional with the ball, achieving remarkable figures of 3 wickets for 14 runs, which kept his team in contention. However, the rest of the bowling attack struggled to contain the flow of runs during the death overs.
