TEAMS PREVIEW

Sharjah Warriors Preview

Tim Southee and his men will feel confident after their big win in the last game. The side batted brilliantly in a big run chase against the Dubai Capitals, winning the game by 5 wickets. Southee will look for a good show in this game from his players and move up on the points table. 

Johnson Charles and Jason Roy delivered a good start in the last game, and the team expects a similar show from the pair. Avishaka Fernando played an electrifying knock in the last game, and he will look to deliver a strong show in the middle order from Rohan Mustafa and Luke Wells. The lower middle order is strong, and the side expects Karim Janat and Keemo Paul to do well. 

The bowling attack will be under pressure after a poor show in the last game. Southee must lead from the front and do well with Adam Milne in the opening spell. Treveen Mathew and Junaid Siddique must keep the scoring under check in the middle overs with Adil Rashid. The side expects a good show from Rohan Mustafa and Karim Janat in the ing role.

Sharjah Warriors Predicted Playing XI:

Tim Southee (c), Johnson Charles (wk), Luke Wells, Jason Roy, Rohan Mustafa, Karim Janat, Keemo Paul, Treveen Mathew, Adil Rashid, Adam Milne, Junaid Siddique, Avishaka Fernando (Impact Player)

Sharjah Warriors Actual Playing XI:

Avishka Fernando, Jason Roy, Luke Wells, Karim Janat, Keemo Paul, Johnson Charles, Dilshan Madushanka, Adam Milne, Ethan D'Souza, Rohan Mustafa, Tim Southee, Traveen Mathews

MI Emirates Preview

Nicholas Pooran's team hasn't been consistent in their three games. They went down against the Desert Vipers in the last game by 5 wickets, their second loss in three games. Batsmen have failed to put up runs, and the bowling attack has also looked ordinary. Pooran would expect a strong fightback from his players to improve their position on the points table.

Kusal Perera and Muhammad Waseem haven't converted their starts into big scores, and the team expects a strong show from the opening pair. Pooran is the key batsman in the side and must do well in the middle with Kieron Pollard and Tom Banton. The team expects runs from Dan Mousley and Romario Shepherd in the lower middle order. 

The bowling attack is struggling, and the team expects a good start with the new ball from Fazalhaq Farooqi and Akeal Hosein after they leaked runs in the last game. AM Ghazanfar must improve his line and bowl better spells in the middle overs with Waqar Salamkheil. Zahoor Khan and Mousley add depth to the bowling attack.

MI Emirates Predicted Playing XI:

Nicholas Pooran (c & wk), Kusal Perera, Muhammad Waseem, Tom Banton, Kieron Pollard, Romario Shepherd, Akeal Hosein, Zahoor Khan, Fazalhaq Farooqi, AM Ghazanfar, Dan Mousley, Waqar Salamkheil (Impact Player)

MI Emirates Actual Playing XI:

Mohammad Waseem, Kieron Pollard, Dan Mousley, Romario Shepherd, Tom Banton, Nicholas Pooran, Zahoor Khan, Alzarri Joseph, Waqar Salamkheil, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Akeal Hosein, Kusal Perera

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

It will be a warm evening in Sharjah, and we expect to see a batting-friendly wicket where fast bowlers would have a tough time. They will have to mix their line well to grab wickets. The average first-innings score in the last two seasons has been 162 runs, and the side that bats first will look to have 200 runs on the board. 

SW vs MIE Pitch Report

Sharjah Cricket Stadium is a small ground and perhaps among the highest-scoring ones in the world when it comes to big scores in T20 cricket. The ground is small, and the outfield is lightning-fast. There isn't much for the bowlers where, and both fast bowlers and spinners have struggled so far on this track in this tournament, as there is a small margin of error for them.

Toss: To Bowl

We have seen massive scores at this venue, where the pitch has been a great one to bat. Most teams have won games at this venue, chasing the score as the wicket remains good throughout the game. The side winning the toss shouldn't hesitate to bowl first.
