Sixteen-year-old pacer Shabnam Shakil announced her arrival on the big stage with brilliant figures of 3/11 to negate Deepti Sharma's brilliance as Gujarat Giants all but dashed UP Warriorz's hopes of qualifying for the knock-out stages with an eight-run victory in the Women's Premier League on Monday. Warriorz, with a negative net run-rate of -0.371, needed to win to have any chance of qualification but despite Deepti's unbeaten 88 off 60 balls, Warriorz could only end up with 144 for 5, chasing a target of 153 set by the Giants.
