The Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi delivered a light-hearted moment during the Abu Dhabi T10 League clash between UAE Bulls and Quetta Qavalry, as RCB teammates Phil Salt and Tim David shared a playful exchange on the field. The incident unfolded in the sixth over when David, facing veteran spinner Imran Tahir, tapped the ball gently toward extra cover.
Despite an easy single being available, David immediately refused the run, leaving Salt—his partner at the non-striker’s end—momentarily puzzled. The two shared a brief mid-pitch conversation, hinting at a bit of friendly banter between the RCB duo.
What came next added to the amusement. On the very next delivery, David stepped down and launched the ball high over deep midwicket, sending it soaring into the stands for a massive six. As the crowd erupted, David casually strolled back to Salt, and the two burst into laughter, turning the moment into a highlight of the match.
While the banter provided a fun subplot, the match itself was dominated by the Quetta Qavalry, who secured a commanding nine-wicket victory. The UAE Bulls, batting first, managed 109 runs in their 10 overs. Despite quickfire contributions from Phil Salt (31 off 15), Rovman Powell (23 off 14), and Tim David (31 off 11), the team struggled to maintain momentum.

Quetta’s bowling unit was exceptional, led by Mohammad Amir’s outstanding spell of 4 for 16, which dismantled the Bulls’ middle order and earned him the Player of the Match award. Khuzaima Tanveer added two wickets, while Jason Holder and Abbas Afridi bowled economical overs to keep the Bulls in check.
In response, Quetta Qavalry made the chase look effortless. Evin Lewis struck an unbeaten 48 off 24, while Muhammad Waseem blasted a rapid 50 from just 19 deliveries. Their dominant 89-run opening stand ensured the target was chased down in only 8.2 overs. With the Bulls’ bowlers unable to respond, Quetta sealed a smooth and emphatic victory.
