Odean
Smith’s
magnificent
innings
of
33
runs
from
11
balls
and
Tom
Moores’ quick-fire
39
runs
from
19
balls
helped
the
Gladiators
post
a
total
of
134/5
in
their
10
overs.
In
reply,
the
Northern
Warriors
couldn’t
find
a
way
to
gain
momentum
consistently
and
eventually
fell
short
of
their
target.
Kennar
Lewis
got
Northern
Warriors’
chase
going
in
pristine
fashion
as
he
smashed
two
boundaries
and
two
sixes
off
Odean
Smith’s
bowling
in
the
second
over.
However,
Smith
got
the
better
of
him
on
the
last
delivery
of
the
same
over
by
knocking
off
his
stumps.
Moeen
Ali
kept
the
momentum
going
for
the
Warriors
as
he
struck
consecutive
sixes
in
the
fourth
over.
However,
he
was
dismissed
by
Captain
Wahab
Riaz,
who
pulled
things
back
brilliantly
for
the
Gladiators
by
conceding
only
4
runs
in
the
fifth
over.
Thereafter,
the
Warriors
failed
to
bat
at
the
required
rate
and
gathered
just
18
runs
in
the
next
two
overs.
Captain
Rovman
Powell,
who
was
looking
good
in
the
middle
with
a
score
of
25
runs
from
18
balls,
was
run
out
in
the
ninth
over
and
Andre
Russell
bowled
out
Umair
Ali
in
the
last
over
as
the
Gladiators
restricted
the
Warriors
to
115/4
in
their
10
overs.
Earlier,
Tom
Moores
and
Odean
Smith’s
crackling
innings
helped
the
Deccan
Gladiators
record
a
big
score
on
the
board.
Coming
into
bat
at
16/1,
Moores
smashed
Mark
Watt
for
two
boundaries
and
a
six
in
the
third
over
taking
the
Gladiators’
score
to
34/1.
Andre
Russell
joined
the
party
in
the
sixth
over,
smacking
Joshua
Little
for
two
consecutive
boundaries.
Moores
struck
a
boundary
while
Russell
hit
a
straight
six
off
Umair
Ali’s
bowling
which
took
the
Deccan
Gladiators
to
90/2
in
7
overs.
Thereafter,
Oshane
Thomas
put
the
brakes
on
the
run
flow
by
taking
the
wickets
of
Moores
(39
runs
off
19
balls)
and
Russell
(22
runs
off
11
balls)
and
conceded
only
3
runs
in
the
eighth
over.
However,
Odean
Smith
struck
four
boundaries
and
a
six
off
Rayad
Emrit’s
bowling
in
the
next
over
and
got
the
Gladiators’ innings
back
on
track.
Smith
(33*
runs
off
11
balls)
smashed
two
more
sixes
in
the
last
over,
taking
his
team’s
total
to
134/5
in
their
10
overs.
