Opting to bat first, Ajman Bolts posted a formidable total of 133/1 in 10 overs, largely thanks to a blistering innings from England's Alex Hales.

In response, Bangla Tigers struggled early in their chase, losing wickets at regular intervals to slump to 55/5. Skipper Shakib Al Hasan tried to rally his team with an unbeaten 29 off 19, but it wasn't enough to secure the win. Bangla Tigers finished on 102/6.
Muhammad Mohsin took two wickets for Ajman Bolts, while Mujeeb Ur Rahman, James Neesham, and Dunith Wellalage each claimed one wicket. This was Ajman Bolts' second win in the tournament. Both teams have now played five matches each, with two wins apiece.
