That's it from our coverage of the eliminator contest of the Abu Dhabi T10 league. Ninaad Dixit here signing off on behalf of scorer/analyst Yogesh Kumar. Stay tuned for more cricketing action from around the world.
Nicholas Pooran (Player of the Match, Deccan Gladiators Captain): "I am just happy that I can contribute to the team's success today. Its playoff time, time for all players to step up.

I think we are warm but quite accustomed to this format. Last year we played in these 2 games as well but its nice to come off a win and change to another game as well.

It helps with the experience. Most of the guys have been here last year as well so they know exactly what to do. It is all about winning the small moments.

We need to close up overs. We are getting into too many big overs especially in the middle overs. We are starting really well as a bowling group but we just need to do better in the middle and just try to close it and make it easier for the bowlers.

They have been playing some good cricket and we lost to them a night ago. We know what their batsmen are like and we plan pretty decently. We know if we've won this game against Morrisville Samp Army then we have a better shot against the opposition we face."

8:58 PM IST, 7:28 PM Local Time: The Deccan Gladiators smash the Bangla Tigers by 10 wickets to enter the second qualifier of Abu Dhabi T10 competition. It was the Nicholas Pooran show on display in the second innings as the Caribbean stalwart smashed the bowlers all over and out of the park in the chase.

Pooran did everything right by flipping the coin well on the toss and elected to bowl first restricting the Tigers for 112/6 despite Gulbadin Naib hitting an unbeaten half century. Andre Russell and Nuwan Thushara picked up 2 wickets first up.

Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Pooran started attacking from ball one and hit 25 runs off the very first over delivered by Daniel Sams. TKC smashed 43 runs in 16 balls hitting 4 fours and 3 sixes.

Pooran in his assault smashed 8 fours and 5 sixes. Skipper Benny Howell (0/9), Gulbadin Naib (0/13), Carlos Brathwaite (0/14) and Dominic Drakes (0/8) could be considered the economic bowlers with Drakes bowling the inevitable over.

The Gladiators would hope to carry this momentum later in the night when they face Morrisville Samp Army in the second qualifier in a bid to reach the finals where the winner will face the New York Strikers.

Stay tuned as we return with the post match presentation.
6.4 D Drakes to N Pooran
4 FOUR RUNS!! Pooran finishes off in some fashion! Clubs a boundary to end the game! Short and wide outside the off stump. Pooran throws his hands at it and slaps through the unoccupied third man region. The ball travels with some pace and clears the distance along the ground.
6.3 D Drakes to T Kohler-Cadmore
1 Full on the leg stump, backs away and drives to deep point for a run.
6.2 D Drakes to N Pooran
1 Yorker on the middle stump, turns it towards square leg for an easy run.
6.1 D Drakes to N Pooran
2 Over the wicket. Full and outside the off stump. Pooran hits in the air and down the ground. Long off runs to his left, gets hit on the body while stopping the ball and deflects it to long on.
