In the finals against Deccan Gladiators’ captain, DJ Bravo lead the bowling attack of Maratha Arabians by grabbing two wickets in 2 overs, and with the assistance of Malinga, McClenaghan and Rijitha who took one wicket each restricted Gladiators at 87 runs.
The target of 88 didn’t look difficult as the Arabians chased down the goal having 16 balls to spare. Chadwick Walton outplayed the opposition by scoring a fifty on 26 balls with six 4s and three gigantic sixes. This performance also rewarded him with Man of the match.
Lynn, on the other hand, grabbed the Man of the tournament as he scored 371 runs with four fifties in the current season. He also managed to hit the maximum number of 4s (29) and sixes (31).
