Abu Dhabi (PNP)
The New York Strikers concluded their ADT10 campaign with a mix of memorable highlights and learning experiences, falling short of a semi-final berth despite showing promising moments throughout the tournament.
Head Coach Carl Crowe provided additional perspective on the season: “Our journey through ADT10 has been marked by both impressive performances and learning opportunities. While results alternated between victories and setbacks, the team’s commitment to excellence never wavered.”
The New York Strikers have shown remarkable resilience throughout the tournament, highlighted by Kusal Perera’s explosive 15-ball half-century against Northern Warriors, showcasing his match-winning capabilities. The team thrived under the strategic leadership of Kieron Pollard, whose experience in franchise cricket proved invaluable in crucial moments against Team Abu Dhabi and the Bangla Tigers. The bowling attack, led by Mohammad Amir and Sunil Narine, maintained impressive economy rates, while Asif Ali’s powerful hitting in the death overs provided vital firepower, particularly against the Northern Warriors. Additionally, the fielding unit, energized by Reece Topley and Akeal Hosein, displayed exceptional athleticism, making key contributions that helped secure the Strikers’ strong tournament performance.
Team Owner Sagar Khanna also admiring the New York Strikers game throughout the AD T10 season shared, “This season has been a valuable learning experience, and we are committed to building a stronger, more resilient squad for the future. Our focus will always be on developing our players and giving them the tools to succeed on the global stage.”
