DP WORLD ILT20 SEASON 4
The Desert Vipers took home a cash prize of $700,000 along with the Black Belt, while MI Emirates were awarded $300,000.
Curran smashed an unbeaten 74 off 51 balls, studded with eight fours and two sixes, to power his team to an unassailable 182/4.
He was well supported by Max Holden (41 off 32) and Dan Lawrence's (23 off 15) late charge. Naseem Shah (3/18), Usman Tariq (2/20), and Khuzaima Tanveer (2/22) led the bowling effort before David Payne's three-wicket haul (3/42) restricted MI Emirates to 136.
Fans at the Dubai International Stadium were treated to a spectacular buildup ahead of the final, with a dazzling fireworks display and a drone show lighting up the night sky.
The pre-match extravaganza created a carnival-like atmosphere as thousands of spectators soaked in the visual spectacle that celebrated the league and set the stage for the biggest clash of the season.
