The Abu Dhabi T10 League reaches a crucial stage on today, Sunday November 30, as Quetta Qavalry take on UAE Bulls in Qualifier 2 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium, with the winner advancing to the tournament final.

Both sides enter the knockout fixture with contrasting momentum. Quetta Qavalry are looking to recover quickly after a seven-wicket defeat to Aspin Stallions in Qualifier 1, while UAE Bulls arrive buoyed by a dominant 47-run victory over Ajman Titans in the Eliminator.

Quetta Qavalry: Searching for a Turnaround

Quetta’s campaign hit a setback after posting 102/6 in Qualifier 1, a total that proved insufficient despite efforts from Andries Gous (26) and Liam Livingstone (25).

The team’s standout performers this season include Waseem Muhammad, who has scored 176 runs so far, and Khuzaima Tanveer, the side’s leading wicket-taker with nine wickets.

Aspin Stallions successfully chased down Quetta’s target thanks to a blistering 66* off 22 balls from Sherfane Rutherford.

UAE Bulls: Confidence on the Rise

The UAE Bulls sealed their place in Qualifier 2 with an explosive batting display, piling up 162/3 in 10 overs against Ajman Titans.

Phil Salt struck a commanding 59 off 26 balls, supported by Tim David (40) and Rovman Powell (32). The Bulls’ bowlers then restricted Ajman to 115/4 to secure a comfortable win.

Tim David leads the Bulls’ run chart with 238 runs this season, while Junaid Siddique tops their wicket-taking list with eight dismissals.
