We are done for the day. MIE have won this and have moved to 10 points from 9 games. They have a game to go. Their superior NRR should see them through to the top four even if they lose their last game to the Warriorz. Gulf Giants have a massive task at hand. They have their last game tomorrow against ADKR. This is their last chance but even a win won't guarantee them a spot in the top four. They will have to rely on other results. We will be there tomorrow to dish out more permutations and combinations. Bye bye till then!
