TEAMS PREVIEW
Saudi Arabia Preview
Saudi Arabia have done well in T20 international matches in 2024. They have played a total of 20 games and managed to win 13 out of them. It was neck and neck with Kuwait as far as 2024 T20I stats are concerned, but in the opening game, Kuwait proved to be a much better team compared to Saudi Arabia.
Losing the toss and batting first, Saudi Arabia got to 60 in no time without losing a wicket. But two quick wickets in the fifth over and regular wickets thereon restricted them to 136 all out in the 19th over. Faisal Khan top scored for Saudi Arabia with an innings of 49 runs in 18 balls with two fours and six sixes. The target of 136 runs was never going to be enough against Kuwait who got there in the 17th over with just four wickets down. Zain-ul-Abidin took two wickets for 28 runs in four overs. Usman Najeeb and Waji-ul-Hassan took one wicket each.
Abdul Waheed is top batter for Saudi Arabia in the last 10 matches scoring 350 runs at an average of 35 and strike rate of close to 150. He is followed by Faisal Khan with 314 runs in the last 10 matches at an average of 31.4 and a superb strike rate of 190. In Bowling, Ishtiaq Ahmad and Usman Najeeb have 13 wickets each in their recent games. Both have an economy of around 8.5 and a strike rate of close to 15.

Qatar Preview
Like Saudi Arabia, Qatar also started the season with a big loss against Oman. In 2024, Qatar have played 14 games so far and have managed to win 8 out of them. Their win percentage is slightly lower than that of Saudi Arabia in 2024, but this could be one of their best chances to a win in the tournament.
In the opening game against Oman, Qatar won the toss and elected to field first. They conceded 204 runs, taking five wickets against Oman. Barring Mujib-ur-Rehman, rest of the five bowlers went for a high economy rate. Qatar started this steep chase promisingly, scoring 49 in just the fifth over, but loss of two quick wickets in the fifth and sixth overs pushed them back. Thereon, they kept losing wickets at regular intervals and fell short by 35 runs eventually. Muhammad Asim was the top scorer for Qatar with 63 runs in just 28 balls with six fourths and three sixes.
In batting, Muhammad Tanveer has scored 365 runs in the last 10 matches, averaging above 50 and striking at around 140, followed by Mohammad Ahnaff with 277 runs in the last 10 matches at an average of around 35. In bowling, Ikramullah Khan has 12 wickets in the last 9 matches at an economy of just above 8. Amir Farooq too has bowled well in the last 9 matches taking 10 wickets at an economy of around 8.
Key players: Muhammad Tanveer, Mohammad Ahnaff, Mujeeb ur Rehman, Amir Farooq

SDA vs QAT
Winning Prediction
Saudi Arabia and Qatar both started the season with a loss. If you look at 2024, Saudi Arabia have done much better than Qatar, winning a high percentage of games. There is very little to compare between these two teams. But we believe Saudi Arabia might have an upper hand against Qatar in this game.
We predict that Saudi Arabia will defeat Qatar.
