Dubai Capitals Preview
Dubai Capitals are performing poorly so far in the International League T20 Championship 2025. They have played 4 matches so far and have lost 3 of them. Their only win came in the first game which was a very narrow win by just one run. This is perhaps the toughest challenge that the capitals will face this season as they are up against the table toppers Desert Vipers who are yet to lose a match this season.
Dubai Capitals started the season with a win against MI Emirates. Defending a small score of 133, they managed to stop Emirates just one run short. Brandon McMullen scored a valuable knock of 58 runs while Gulbadin Naib took three wickets for 13 runs in four overs toward the end of the game helping the Capitals their first win.
In a doubleheader against MI Emirates in the next game, the Capitals lost by 26 runs, chasing a target of 188. Gulbadin Naib yet again took three wickets for 18 runs. It was a shocking defeat for the Capitals in the sense that, in a not-so-big chase, one of their batters, Shai Hope, scored a century, but none of the other batters could him to get a victory for the Capitals.
Dubai Capitals lost the next two games against Sharjah Warriorz and Gulf Giants by 5 wickets and 6 wickets respectively. The loss against the Warriorz came despite the Capitals scoring 2-1 and 1, batting first. Shai Hope was yet again the top scorer, with 83 off his triple ball. Chameera took three wickets for a 30-run.
The Dubai Capitals are primarily dependent on a few individuals such as Shai Hope, the top run scorer of the tournament so far, and bowler Gulbadan Naib to get them over the line. They are not performing as a team. Underperformance by captain Sikandar Raza is a matter of concern as well. The Capitals need to up their game and perform as a unit if they are to have any chance of beating the tabletoppers Desert Vipers.
Key players: Shai Hope, Brandon McMullen, Gulbadin Naib, Rovman Powell

Ben Dunk, Shai Hope (wk), Brandon McMullen, Sikandar Raza (c), Rovman Powell, Dasun Shanaka, Gulbadin Naib, Scott Kuggeleijn, Olly Stone, Haider Ali, Farhan Khan

Desert Vipers Preview
Desert Vipers have had an excellent International League T20 tournament so far this season. They are undoubtedly the top team in the tournament with 4 wins in 4 games under their belt. They have defeated Abu Dhabi Knight Riders twice along with MI Emirates and Gulf Giants once to maintain their defeat-less record so far this season.
It started with a comprehensive win against the Knight Riders in the first game for Desert Vipers. They chased down 167 with 7 wickets and 8 balls to spare. Dan Lawrence and Sam Curran were involved in a 95-run partnership that caught them over the line quite easily.
Sam Curran's all-around show of not out 42 runs, one wicket, and a couple of catches helped the Desert Vipers defeat the Gulf Giants quite easily in their second game. Chasing 120, Desert Vipers got over the line with 6 wickets and 14 balls to spare. They defeated Emirates in another successful chase by 5 wickets with 5 balls remaining, thanks to Fakhar Zaman's 67 of 52 balls. Earlier, Lokie Ferguson took 2 wickets for 25 runs.
In the previous game, they were up against the Knight Riders for the second time this season. After scoring 193 batting first, the Desert Vipers restricted the Knight Riders to 53 runs short of the target. Alex Hales and Dan Lawrence played valuable knocks with the bat, while Nathan Sowter and Wanindu Hasaranga took five wickets among them to bundle out the Knight Riders for just 140 runs. The Desert Vipers are hunting as a unit and they should be able to defeat Dubai Capitals easily in this game.

The Desert Vipers have restricted even the strongest batting lineups to scores under 160 runs in matches played at Dubai, while the Dubai Capitals batting unit has struggled for consistency this season. We predict a moderately scoring game with the total match score likely to remain under 330 runs.

The conditions at Dubai International Stadium are quite even for batting and bowling. Out of the 92 T20Is played at this venue, 47 have been won by the teams chasing, while 45 have been won by the teams deciding to bat first. It's 3-2 in favor of the teams bowling first at this venue in the 5 games so far this season. The team winning the toss should bowl first here.

Winning Prediction
This is a clash of the team at the top, the Desert Vipers, versus the team at the bottom, the Dubai Capitals. The Vipers are yet to lose a match in this series, while the Capitals have only one win to show in four games. Desert Vipers are hunting as a team whereas Dubai Capitals are reliant on individual performances for a win. We believe that Desert Vipers have a huge advantage over Dubai Capitals going into this game.
