Deccan Gladiators recorded a thumping ten-wicket victory over Chennai Braves in the 17th match of the Abu Dhabi T10 at the Zayed cricket Stadium.
Chennai Braves paid the price for a poor batting display, making just 83 for 8 in 10 overs. Their batting crumbled against the bowling of Andre Russell (2 for 12) and Nuwan Thushara (2 for 26). Only Stephen Eskinazi (25) put up some resistance against Deccan's accurate bowling attack.
Chasing the moderate target, Tom Kohler-Cadmore and skipper Nicholas Pooran thrashed the Chennai attack to win in 6.1 overs. Kohler Cadmore remained unbeaten on 44 off 19 balls with three boundaries and Pooran was unconquered on 35 off 19 balls with three boundaries and three sixes.
Deccan Gladiators won the match with 23 balls to spare and moved to the second slot in the table.
Earlier, David Miller lived up to his nickname as 'Killer' Miller after cracking a breezy 50 off 24 balls with four boundaries and three sixes to help Bangla Tigers post an impressive 137 for 4 in 10 overs against Northern Warriors.
The Tigers then overcame the Warriors by two runs.
In another match on Sunday, Morrisville Samp Army beat Delhi Bulls by four wickets.
