Ajman Alubond has started their tournament campaign in a grand fashion by winning their first match against Team Abu Dhabi by 70 runs and got 2 important points. Player of the match against Abu Dhabi, Rameez Shahzad will be the key man for Ajman in the upcoming matches. They looked very professional in their approach against Abu Dhabi, though there is plenty of improvements that have to be made overall. They look to continue the same momentum against Sharjah also.
Meanwhile, Sharjah Bukhatir XI got beaten in their first match against Fujairah by 10 runs, their run-rate in the first 10 overs was low which costed the game for them. Their top 3 batters look good in the first game. Skipper Fayyaz Ahmed needs to anchor the innings in the coming matches as he did against Fujairah.
