The season featured Chamera’s prowess and gave the Capitals an early advantage.
Dubai’s capital cities have looked to exploit the hot conditions under the lights in Abu Dhabi. Their decision paid off and Chamera was able to get out the dangerous Perera on the first ball of the second ball, setting the stage for some strong bowling action.
Known for his pace and accuracy, Chamera delivered a charm to send his Sri Lankan friend back to the tent. Bowling over the wicket, Chamera hits a good length ball on top of the off stump.
A perplexed Perera failed to move his feet effectively and tried to defend with a slightly angled bat. Unfortunately for him, the ball took a thick inside edge and clipped the leg stump. The Capitals celebrated the wicket of a key player.
This dismissal was a textbook example of top-class fast bowling, which left Perera with no room for error. Chamera’s fiery opening spell set the tone for Dubai Capitals, who looked to capitalize on his early discovery.
