ILT20 Season 2: Azam Khan’s Fastest Fifty Of Event Helps Desert Vipers Sink Gulf Giants
Dubai International Stadium: Azam Khan hit the fastest half-century in the history of ILT20 off just 18 balls to lift Desert Vipers to a six-wicket win over Gulf Giants in the 19th match of the season 2 at the Dubai International Stadium.
Azam Khan remained unconquered on 50 off 20 balls with five boundaries and four sixes, and along with his skipper Colin Munro, who scored 51 off 36 balls with six boundaries and two sixes, they won the match with 19 balls to spare. This victory helped the Vipers to move to the third slot in the points table while defending champions Giants slipped to the bottom of the table.
The ease with which Khan hit sixes and scored boundaries off unorthodox shots helped the Vipers chase the target of 161 to win in 16.5 overs.
