GG vs SW Match Prediction & Analysis
This is Match 22 out of 30 in the group stage of the 2024 ILT20 and the message to both sides, although particularly to Gulf Giants is "it's now or never". Only the top four teams go through to the knockout stage and ahead of this match the Giants and the Warriors are the two teams who are going to miss out!
However, we all know that T20 leagues can switch in a moment and that momentum is one of the biggest parts of a team's success. With three games remaining for both teams, including this match, a late burst will see them into the top four and in strong form ahead of the knockout phase.
It's not looking good at the moment for the Giants or the Warriors but don't write them off just yet!5-

TEAMS PREVIEW
Gulf Giants Preview
The Giants come into this game off the back of a disappointing showing against Desert Vipers in Match 19 in Dubai on Saturday. They were outplayed and outfought in both innings as they went down by a 6 wicket margin, the Vipers getting over the line with 19 balls still remaining.
A golden duck for the skipper is never ideal but James Vince is the type of player who can bounce back from a disappointment like that and record a big score in the next game.
With the ball, we have Blessing Muzarabani, Jamie Overton and Chris Jordan most likely to be a threat in this match.
Gulf Giants Predicted Playing XI:
Jamie Smith (wk), James Vince (c). Chris Lynn, Jordan Cox, Usman Khan, Shimron Hetmyer, Gerhard Erasmus, Jamie Overton, Chris Jordan, Zuhaib Zubair, Blessing Muzarabani

Sharjah Warriors Preview
Although the Warriors were well beaten by MI Emirates in the last game, there were some strong performances with the bat, most notably from Niroshan Dickwella and Sean Williams. Dickwella will be looking to 'tee-off' at the top of the order once again after hitting 17 runs from just 7 balls in Match 18. But he'll need his opening partner, Johnson Charles, to that this is a T20 fixture after the West Indian took 31 balls to make 29 runs!
The Warriors appear to have all bases covered with their bowling attack, they just need their batters to put more of a target on the board if they bat first in this match. In Chris Woakes, Maheesh Theekshana, Daniel Sams and Mark Watt, the Warriors have pace and spin from both left and right arm bowlers.
Sharjah Warriors Predicted Playing XI:
Niroshan Dickwella (wk), Johnson Charles, Mark Deyal, Sean Williams, Basil Hameed, Lewis Gregory (c), Daniel Sams, Mark Watt, Chris Woakes, Maheesh Theekshana

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Clear skies with the temperature no higher than 21 degrees is the forecast for Sunday evening in Dubai. However, something to consider will be the breeze which could cause some problems, or make bowling a struggle, with the wind set to be approaching 20mph.

Average Turn
This is generally a good batting pitch in Dubai although the last match at this venue saw the bowlers on top with 17 wickets falling and a combined 299 runs scored. A par score is likely to be no higher than 165 on Sunday evening.
Toss: To Bowl
Every match so far in Dubai in this ILT20 has been won by the team fielding first and chasing a target in the second innings. We predict that both sides will turn up at this venue determined to bowl first if they win the toss.

Winning Prediction
The Warriors have more points on the board and have won more games than the Giants so far in the tournament and it would be a shock if Gulf Giants were to come out on top on Sunday evening. Not much went right for Sharjah Warriors in their last game, they were rightly and comprehensively thrashed, but we are backing them to be back to their best in this match. Our prediction is for Sharjah Warriors to win this fixture.
