Stone Cold or Chris Lynn?

Fellow cricketers often make jokes on their social media where they compare Lynn to these celebrities. After Chris Lynn's 30-ball destruction of Team Abu Dhabi, teammate Mitchell McClenaghan posted to Twitter and congratulated Lynn's contribution to the team.

Lynnsanity in Abu Dhabi!

Chris Lynn was leading the Maratha Arabians against Team Abu Dhabi as regular-captain Yuvraj Singh was out because of a back spasm. Lynn made most of this oppurtunity and led from the front, scoring a unrealistic 91* out of 30 balls. He and Adam Lyth propelled the Arabians to 138. Ben Laughlin was Team Abu Dhabi's best bowler with a single wicket and an economy of 7.50.

Team Abu Dhabi tried to chase the total down but 10 overs were too less of a period for the Moeen Ali-led side to get to 138. They fell short by 24 runs. Their best batsman in the chase was Englishman Luke Wright with his 40. The Arabians' best performing bowler was Mitchell McClenaghan with his one wicket and 8.50 economy.
