DUBAI: Spectacular Gemini Arabians have won the maiden edition of Masters Champions League (MCL) by defeating Leo Lions in the final match played at Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
They won final by 16 runs to claim Oxigen MCL 2016 trophy. Gemini Arabians won all their 7 matches of the tournament including the final game.
In the crucial final match Leo Lions captain Brian Lara won the toss and chose to field. This was quite interesting decision as Gemini Arabians team had been scoring runs at the great pace and asking them to put runs on the board in big match, was really a shocking decision for all. But bowlers did a great job and restricted Arabians team to 130 in 20 overs.
Rana Naved took 4 wickets in his 4 overs by spending just 9 runs in this tournament deciding game. Whole Leo Lions team got all out in 19.3 overs after scoring 114 runs which game Gemini a victory of 16 runs to become first champion of Masters Champions League. Rana Naved was given “man of the match” award for his brilliant spell whereas leading run scorer of the competition Kumar Sangakkara was named “Player of the series”.
