GG vs DC Match Prediction & Analysis
This Saturday evening clash will be Match 11 of this year's ILT20 which is currently shaping up to be an extremely tight group stage.
Usually at this point in a T20 tournament you would have an early pace-setter who have set their goals on going through the competition unbeaten as well as a side locked to the foot of the table and looking like they won't be able to buy a victory throughout the campaign!
Not in the 2024 ILT20 though as all teams have already won at least one and lost at least one. That's why it is so competitive a competition and this match looks set to be a close contest.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Gulf Giants Preview
In spite of Chris Lynn's 63 runs from 42 balls, Gulf Giants found themselves on the receiving end of a Wanindu Hasaranga masterclass with both bat and ball in Match 7, their last game. Now, providing Dubai Capitals don't have someone capable of taking 1/26 and hitting 42 runs from 19 balls, like Desert Vipers did, Gulf Giants should be competitive in this fixture.
The bowling duo of England's Richard Gleeson and West Indies' Dominic Drakes will lead the attack and both come into this game off the back of taking a two-wicket haul against the Vipers. Drakes was particularly impressive with figures of 2/19 from his four overs at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
Gulf Giants Predicted Playing XI:
Jamie Smith (wk), James Vince (c), Chris Lynn, Jordan Cox, Shimron Hetmyer, Chris Jordan, Dominic Drakes, Aayan Afzal Khan, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Blessing Muzarabani, Richard Gleeson

Dubai Capitals Preview
It was a comfortable chase for Dubai Capitals in their last game as they went past their victory target of 184 with 23 balls and five wickets remaining against Abu Dhabi Knight Riders. The victory margin was all the more impressive considering they lost their captain, one of the world's all-time greatest T20 batters, David Warner, for a two-ball duck at the top of their innings.
However, a new Australian top order batter is starting to create headlines and Jake Fraser-McGurk continued his rich vein of form from the BBL with 41 runs from 17 balls. There was also 67 from Sam Billings and 43 from Sikandar Raza which highlights the strength in depth that Dubai Capitals have in their batting ranks.
Dubai Capitals Predicted Playing XI:
David Warner (c), Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Jake Fraser-McGurk, Sam Billings, Sikandar Raza, Rovman Powell, Rahul Chopra, Jason Holder, Roelof van der Merwe, Akif Raja, Dushmantha Chameera

High Turn
There is usually a good contest between bat and ball at this venue although traditionally it is the batters who tend to win the battle! With high humidity during the evening, it could be a day when the swing bowlers can have more of an impact than usual.
Toss: To Bowl
From the first eight games in this year's ILT20, only two matches were won by the team batting first. Therefore, it would be a major surprise if either captain won the toss and then did not choose to bowl first in Sharjah!

Winning Prediction
As with all teams in this tournament, this game is dripping with world class white ball stars! However, we think Dubai Capitals have more in-form batters and generally more quality throughout their team. Our prediction is for Dubai Capitals to beat Gulf Giants.
