11.10pm
The Dubai Capitals put in a spirited effort, but their fielding woes resurfaced. They managed to claim two wickets in the Powerplay but failed to maintain the pressure. While Sikandar Raza, Gulbadin Naib, and Scott Kuggeleijn were relatively economical, the rest of the bowlers leaked runs. Gulbadin’s costly drop of Shimron Hetmyer on 5 proved to be a turning point in the game as they suffered back-to-back defeats.
11.08pm
Earlier in the game, Dubai Capitals put up a decent total on the board, though they would have hoped for more. Several batters got starts but failed to capitalize, with Dasun Shanaka top-scoring with a quickfire 33 off 20 balls. For Gulf Giants, Mark Adair and Aayan Khan claimed two wickets each, while the rest of the bowlers contributed effectively. A special mention goes to Blessing Muzarabani, who was exceptionally economical and even bowled a rare maiden over in a T20 match.
11.06pm
Despite a couple of early setbacks, Gulf Giants got off to a strong start, thanks to Impact Player Adam Lyth, who provided a solid boost at the top. Jordan Cox carried the momentum forward but couldn’t stay at the crease for long. From there, it was all about the 80-run partnership between Shimron Hetmyer and Gerhard Erasmus. The latter took charge with a well-crafted half-century, while both showcased composure, avoiding unnecessary risks. Together, they sealed the win with 11 balls to spare, with Hetmyer finishing unbeaten on a blazing 41 off just 20 deliveries.
11.02pm
The Gulf Giants are back on track in ILT20 2025! After two back-to-back losses, they have delivered a stellar all-round performance to maintain their perfect group-stage record against the Dubai Capitals.

Obed McCoy to Shimron Hetmyer
SIX! OH MY WORD! That has been sent into the stars by Shimron Hetmyer and that is that for the chase! Goes full and on the stumps. Shimron Hetmyer shimmies down the track, swings hard through the line, and absolutely muscles it over the cow corner fence for a biggie. It is 114 meters big, to be exact! The Gulf Giants chase it down with 11 balls to spare.
