Aces Capital moved clear in the Major Clubs T20 standings with a comprehensive 164-91 victory over Polis Sports on Sunday. The away side's performance was measured and clinical, while the hosts struggled to find any rhythm throughout their innings.
Polis Sports sit fourth on four points from five matches, their form showing inconsistency. They had edged a close contest against Badurilia before suffering heavy defeats to Singalese Sports Club and Nondescripts. Aces Capital's six points from five games places them third, and this win extended their momentum after a mixed run of results.
The gap between the sides was apparent from the outset. Polis Sports managed only 91 runs, unable to build partnerships or counter the away team's bowling effectively. Aces Capital's bowlers kept their heads, picking up wickets at regular intervals and restricting the hosts to a modest total.
For Polis Sports, the result means the table goes out of the window in these games. They remain fourth, but the points difference is widening. Aces Capital's third-place position looks more secure, and the margin between them and the bottom half of the table is growing.
