Abu Dhabi T10: Deccan Gladiators were on song against Bangla Tigers as they registered a thumping 9-wicket win against them in the ongoing Abu Dhabi T10 tournament, taking them to the top spot in the points table at the Zayed Cricket Stadium here on Thursday. The Gladiators' bowling unit put up a brilliant show with the ball and thoroughly dominated the batting unit of Bangla Tigers.

Tigers had a disappointing start to the proceedings while batting first as the side lost the first wicket for 10 runs and never really got back on track. They were left tottering at 54/6 in the 8th over and eventually ended the innings at 72/6 in 10 overs.

Pakistan batter Iftikhar Ahmed top-scored with 19 off 14 while Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan scored 16 not out off 23. Afghanistan's Rashid Khan struck 12 not out off eight balls.
