Premier League Darts LIVE RESULTS: Luke Littler takes on Rob Cross in the quarter-final

Littler warns

The Nuke has warned his Premier League rivals: “I know I have the ability to beat you all.”

And the teenage darts sensation will make his second Prem appearance in Berlin on Thursday after reaching the semi-finals on his debut in Cardiff.

The 17-year-old Warrington whiz has already avenged last month's final defeat in the world against Luke Humphries.

Littler also defeated ex-champions Michael van Gerwen, Gerwyn Price and Rob Cross.

Yet he also revealed his incredible professional title win in Bahrain – including a stunning nine-dart finish – was merely a 'warm-up' for the elite Premier League.

Reflecting on his “crazy” few weeks in the big world, The Nuke stated: “The World Championship was a big step forward.

“But I've proven that I can play with the best, that's why I got my chance in the Premier League.

“It was good to win on my debut in Bahrain and become the youngest person to hit a nine-darter.

“But it was just match training for the Premier League.

“Now we move on and I know I have the ability to beat the best.”
