MI Emirates secured a dramatic last over victory against Abu Dhabi Knight Riders in the ILT20 at the Zayed Cricket Stadium on Saturday.

Dwayne Bravo (15 off 6) and Najibullah Zadran (35 off 17) were their heroes on the night after they smashed Andre Russell for 25 in the final over to maintain their perfect record in the competition.

Chasing 170, MI Emirates lost two early wickets. UAE opener Muhammad Waseem (2) was first to depart, caught by Sunil Narine off Lahiru Kumara in the second over.

Will Smeed followed soon at 27 before Andre Fletcher and Nicholas Pooran (20) came together with a 55-run stand for the third wicket before the latter pulled one straight to Charith Asalanka at deep square leg off Russell.
