Dubai: The United Arab Emirates (UAE) cricket team has secured their place in the finals of the ACC Men’s Premier Cup for the third consecutive year. In the semifinals, they dealt a crushing blow to Hong Kong, who were restricted to a paltry 70 runs. Left-arm spinner Haider Ali was the standout performer, claiming an impressive 6-14 and three maiden overs.

Hong Kong's openers, Zeeshan Ali and Kalhan Challu, put up a brave fight, but Ali's relentless bowling proved too much for them. Adeeb Usmani, the UAE wicketkeeper, also contributed two wickets. Despite losing three wickets, UAE's low scoring rate didn't deter them from victory. The defending champions are now eagerly awaiting the outcome of their match against Nepal and Oman, who both have strong records in the tournament.

A potential final between UAE and Oman would be reminiscent of their 2024 Men’s Premier Cup win, while a clash against Nepal would echo their 2023 T20 defeat. The ACC Men’s Premier final is scheduled for September 12 at the Bayuemas Oval in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. UAE fans can catch the action live for free as the match will be streamed on the ACC's YouTube channel.
