ARCS Andheri captain Shivam Dube held himself till No. 7 when his team needed 59 in 7.2 overs. It was a tricky situation as the pitch was assisting the spinners at Wankhede.

Dube pulled mightily for sixes to remain unbeaten on 45 off 26 balls (1x4, 5x6) as AA defeated Aakash Tigers Mumbai Western Suburbs (ATMWS) by five wickets with nine deliveries to spare in the first semi-final on Thursday and storm into Saturday’s final.
