Shimul Dalal and Ankit Chauhan scored more than half of Gladiators XI's runs be-tween themselves, but credit should also be given to the bowl-ers, who contained the Ahmedabad Night Riders' batsmen in the run chase to help their team cruise to a 44-run win in the KCL Astral Cup Winter Cricket tournament.
Dalal hit four boundaries in his 34, while Chauhan chipped in with a valuable knock of 20, as Gladia-tors XI scored 97 for 6 in their al-lotted 15 overs.
Ahmedabad Night Riders were not in the hunt to chase down the target at any stage. Samkit Turakhia and Inder Awtani took two wickets each for Gladiators XI as Ahmedabad Night Riders were restricted to 53 for 9 in 15 overs.
