Ace India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin hailed United Arab Emirates (UAE)’s stunning seven-wicket win over New Zealand in the second match of their three-game T20I series, saying that it is a big achievement and shows the impact of franchise cricket in the gulf side’s victory over the mighty Black Caps.
In the match, Aayan Afzal Khan claimed 3-20 while Muhammad Jawadullah took 2-16 as UAE restricted New Zealand to 142-8. In reply, skipper Muhammad Waseem led from the front with a 29-ball 55 while Asif Khan made 48 as UAE chased down the total in 15.4 overs to level the series 1-1 and get their first win over the tourists across all international formats.
