The West Indies and Northern Warriors Wicket Keeper batsman, Nicolas Pooran smashed the ball all over the park in his 26 balls 89 runs innings. In the 11th match of the Abu Dhabi T10 League, the Northern Warriors won by 30 runs against a fighting Bengal Tigers team. Batting first, the Warriors posted a mammoth 162/4 in their allotted 10 overs.

Walked into the crease at the score of 22/1 in 1.5 overs, Pooran went on to his six hitting streak after quietly facing the first 3 balls scoring a single run. In his 26 balls innings, he smashed 12 towering sixes to go with 3 fours. The best part was that the innings was full of pure cricket shots and no slogging. He along with his West Indies teammate, Lendl Simmons (41)  put on a 122-runs stand in very quick time, taking their team to a massive 162 runs. The Bengal Tigers struggled at the start with Johnson Charles and Afif Hossain falling cheaply. But, the partnership between the Spiceman, Andre Fletcher (53) and Chirag Suri (42*) took their score to a respectable 132/3 loosing the match by a 30-runs margin.
