Oza struck a breathtaking 113 off just 55 balls (14 fours, 5 sixes), while Satish made 74 off 42 deliveries. The duo retired after 16 overs with the team score at 192/0.

What followed was one of the most bizarre scorecards in T20 history — every other UAE batter, ten in total, retired out at the start of the 17th over, eight of them without facing a single ball. The move was reportedly a strategy to accelerate the game due to a looming rain threat.

Who's that IPL player?

Despite the odd innings ending, the UAE bowlers kept things routine in the second half. Qatar crumbled for just 29 in 11.1 overs, with only Rizpha Emmanuel (20) reaching double digits. Seven Qatari batters were dismissed for ducks.

Michelle Botha led the UAE bowling effort with 3/11, while all five other bowlers chipped in with wickets.

While the UAE registered a massive 163-run victory, it was the scorecard of ten 'retired outs' that stole the headlines — a rare sight in international cricket.
