The talented all-rounder first hammered a blazing 103 off just 41 balls with six fours and 11 sixes and then claimed five wickets for 47 runs to run through the ECB batting line-up. Fly Emirates, one of the premier outfits in the country, wasted no time in seizing control of the match when they posted a massive 327 before being all out in the 50th over.

Experienced Amjad Javed (77 off 72 balls with seven fours and four sixes), Arshad Ali (31 off 51 balls) and Lalith Dhanayake (27 off 42 balls) further added to the woes of a struggling ECB Greens attack with some fine batting.
