Dubai Capitals sealed a vital six-wicket win over Gulf Giants with a composed all-round show at Zayed Cricket Stadium.
Mustafizur Rahman’s game-changing 14th-over burst flipped the innings, his three wickets helping bundle the Giants out for 156 after James Vince and Azmatullah Omarzai threatened. Chasing, Shayan Jahangir’s steady 48 anchored the reply before Rovman Powell (47) and Mohammad Nabi (25) finished the job despite mid-innings pressure from the spinners. Earlier, Rahmanullah Gurbaz blazed 25 off 11, but regular strikes and a chaotic run-out hat-trick derailed the Giants.
The victory lifted Capitals to second, while Giants slipped to a fourth defeat.
