In a night of pure domination at the Zayed Cricket Stadium, the UAE Bulls stormed to their first-ever Abu Dhabi T10 title with a thumping 80-run victory over the Aspin Stallions, and it was Tim David who stole the show.

The Australian powerhouse produced one of the greatest innings in ADT10 history, hammering 98 not out off just 30 balls, a jaw-dropping knock featuring 12 sixes and 3 fours. David’s late-innings carnage included a 32-run over against Ashmead Nedd, pushing his season tally to an impressive 393 runs.

Earlier in the day, the Bulls had already battled their way past Quetta Qavalry in Qualifier 2, but they saved their most ruthless performance for the final.

David’s fireworks light up the night

Phil Salt (18 off 8) gave the Bulls a fiery start before James Vince was forced to retire hurt without facing a ball. From there, it became the Tim David show.
Supported by Rovman Powell (24 off 20), who smartly rotated the strike, David unleashed an onslaught that the Stallions simply could not contain. Their 128-run stand created an unchaseable total and sucked the air out of the Stallions’ bowling attack.

Bulls bowlers seal the deal

Defending a mountain of runs, the Bulls’ bowlers kept the pressure on from ball one.

• Andre Fletcher retired hurt early
• Sherfane Rutherford was bowled for 0 by Fazalhaq Farooqi (1/2)
• Skipper Rahmanullah Gurbaz (18 off 15) was the only batter who looked settled

Junaid Siddique, Iftikhar Ahmed, and Qais Ahmad all chipped in with a wicket each as the Bulls restricted the Stallions to just 70/4, sealing an emphatic title-clinching win.
