United Tigers and Yas Lions both won on the second day of the Abu Dhabi T10 League on Sunday, as the six-team tournament continued at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.

The Tigers beat UAE Bulls by 25 runs, posting 126 for 6 in their 10 overs before holding the Bulls to 101 for 4. Azmatullah Omarzai was the player of the match, smashing an unbeaten 48 off 19 balls with five sixes, while Faheem Ashraf made 41 off 16. Khawaja Nafay's unbeaten 48 off 25 balls was not enough to save the Bulls.

It was the Tigers' second win in two days, underlining their strong start to a tournament that runs from 7 to 20 November with 32 matches across 13 playing days.

Earlier in the day, Yas Lions beat Emirates Eagles by six wickets. The Eagles made 115 for 4 in their 10 overs, and the Lions chased the target down in 8.4 overs, finishing on 117 for 4.

The T10 format, with each side batting for just 10 overs, has produced high-scoring, fast-moving games so far, and the early results have left the table tightly packed. With every team playing five group games, there is little room for a slow start.

The league continues in the coming days, with the teams chasing a place in the latter stages of a tournament that has drawn some of the biggest hitters in world cricket to Abu Dhabi.
