Bangla Tigers have lost two in a row and will be hoping to avoid a third straight loss. Delhi Bulls improved their batting performance in the second outing, posting an even bigger total while batting first.
Tigers, on the other hand, saw a decline in their batting returns in the second match as none of their star players at key positions in the batting order delivered any impactful knock.
Toss will be key as the two teams meet at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. Almost every team is looking to bowl first on winning the toss. It will be a great idea for the Tigers to bowl first after losing two games in a row batting first.
Their key players in the middle order aren’t delivering consistently. Now, they will be up against a strong bowling attack of Dehli Bulls which features Afghan pacers who will pose a tough challenge.
Delhi Bulls would have the upper hand going into this match. However, considering the squad strength of the Tigers, a comeback from them cannot be ruled out.

82/10 in 10.0 8.2
85/4 in 8.2 10.2
Delhi Bulls will be confident after a convincing win in their recent outing against Ajman Bolts. Rovman Powell and Tim David delivered match-winning knocks at 4 and 5 respectively.
They’ve got other big-hitting players too in the side such as Tom Banton and James Vince in the top 3. It looks like a solid batting lineup that should be able to deliver another big total.
It is a deep batting lineup with Shadab Khan and Fabian Allen coming in at 6 and 7 respectively. The key difference between the Bulls and other sides in this tournament is that most of their key players are actively participating in their country’s domestic circuit and even on the international stage.
Hence, we expect the batters from this side to deliver more consistently and play a more confident and fearless brand of cricket. The Afghanistan pacers in this squad add strength to the bowling attack and will be the key bowlers to watch out for.
Fazalhaq Farooqi and Naveen-ul-Haq will be leading the bowling attack. Moreover, Muhammad Roid Khan and Shahid Iqbal Bhutta, pacers from Pakistan and UAE respectively, have shown great promise with the ball.
It is a strong overall squad with many in-form and promising players in both departments. Delhi Bulls will have a slight edge over the Tigers coming into this contest.

Bangla Tigers have to address their batting concerns as they take on the Bulls in the 18th match of the Abu Dhabi T10 League. They went from 106-1 in their opening game to 66 for 8 in the second.
The middle and lower middle-order weren’t exposed in the first match as Hazratullah Zazai and Dasun Shanaka stayed unbeaten. However, in the second game, the likes of Liam Livingstone, Iftikhar Ahmed, and skipper Shakib Al Hasan all came to the crease but couldn’t make the most of their opportunity.
In this format, form is not such a big issue as a few big hits can change the momentum of the game at any point. Each of these 3 batters is known for their big hitting.
Livingstone, in particular, can change the game singlehandedly with his fiery knocks. He will be one to watch out for. The Tigers also have Rashid Khan in the lower order at number 7.
He couldn’t do much in the second game with the bat but has a proven ability to play big shots and score quick runs. The skipper was brilliant with the ball while defending a low total and picked up 2 wickets for 1 run in his 1 Over.
Rashid Khan, Imran Khan, and David Payne are other key wicket-takers in this bowling attack. It is a strong overall side on paper but as far as the performances go, the Bangla Tigers have been quite underwhelming.

It will be partly cloudy in Abu Dhabi on the match day with a high of 29 degrees Celsius but by the time the match begins it will be clear skies with the temperature dropping by a couple of degrees.

It is a great wicket for batting and though chances are that it gets slower as more matches are played, we reckon it will still be quite batting-friendly in this game. The average 1st innings score in the last 5 T10 matches is 113 runs. We reckon a match-winning total would be something over 120-125 runs.
Chasing a target seems to be the most preferred option in this format. Teams bowling first have won 8 of the 13 matches in this tournament so far. Considering the current form of Tigers, bowling first could be just what they need to get themselves to winning ways.
Both teams are equally matched in of squad strengths. However, the current form of the Delhi Bulls is much better than that of the Tigers. Bulls have more promising players in both departments and will have the upper hand going into this match. Delhi Bulls will start as favorites in our match prediction.
