Desert Vipers vs Gulf Giants Match Analysis
The 19th Match of ILT20 season 2 will pit Desert Vipers against Gulf Giants. On February 3, the game will take place at the Dubai International Stadium and will kick off at 4:00 PM IST. Desert Vipers, who have dropped four of the last six games, need more time. Having finished bottom in the standings, they must win their remaining games to have a realistic chance of making the playoffs. The team’s most recent game ended in a loss against Dubai Capitals due to their inability to hold 170 points.
Meanwhile, the Gulf Giants have performed similarly mediocrely. After five games, the squad lost three and won two. In the points table, they are positioned higher than Vipers. The Giants’ most recent match ended in a six-wicket loss to the Knight Riders.
Desert Vipers vs Gulf Giants Team Preview & Squads
Desert Vipers
Despite having a very strong roster at their disposal, the Vipers have not had the desired outcome. The fact that the squad is losing does not allow them to make haphazard changes. It’s believed that the Vipers will use the same starting lineup.
The last three matches have seen knocks of 69 and 41 from Alex Hales. The batter seemed to be gradually regaining his form. Hales is one of the Vipers’ most important hitters, so his return to form will be very beneficial. Adam Hose has led the Vipers in the competition with remarkable consistency. Despite having batted in a variety of positions, he has continued to contribute to the team’s success. Despite not having scored a fifty yet, he has made significant plays in practically every game. In six games, Hose has scored 138 runs.
Picking vital wickets for the team is what Wanindu Hasaranga is noted for accomplishing. Having taken nine wickets in six games, Hasaranga has been the team’s best bowler. But his bat will also need to contribute in some way to the squad.
Desert Vipers Squads
Colin Munro (c), Azam Khan (wk), Rohan Mustafa, Wanindu Hasaranga, Ali Naseer, Alex Hales, Adam Hose, Shaheen Afridi, Mohammad Amir, Luke Wood, Matheesha Pathirana, and Sherfane Rutherford (SUB).
Gulf Giants
Gerald Erasmus, Karim Janat, and Saurabh Netravalkar ought to be able to make the playing eleven. The Giants, who have played very averagely thus far, appear to be headed toward changes. Chris Lynn is back to his old self. In his last three innings, the potent hitter has scored 63, 37, and 63 runs. Lynn appears to be headed for a horrific inning very shortly.
Shimron Too low in the batting order is Hetmyer. Hetmyer may go up to No. 4 or No. 5, giving him more time at the crease, given his destructive abilities. Hetmyer can win a game for his team by himself if he is in his zone. The pitch is becoming fatigued, which is giving the spinners Mujeeb ur Rahman some grip from the surface. Bowlers’ lives have become difficult due to dew, but since the following match is a day match, dew won’t have an impact. Mujeeb took two wickets in the previous match.
Gulf Giants Squads
Gulf Giants
James Vince (c), Jamie Smith (wk), Jordan Cox, Usman Khan, Shimron Hetmyer, Carlos Brathwaite, Chris Jordan, Dominic Drakes/Karim Janat, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Richard Gleeson, Zuhaib Zubair/Saurabh Netravalkar, and Chris Lynn (SUB).

Desert Vipers vs Gulf Giants outfield report
Teams have benefited greatly from the dew. Since it’s a day encounter and the match won’t end until the last few overs, captains may decide to bat as well. The temperature will be between 22 and 18 degrees, and the day will be breezy. There will be 48% humidity.
The ball frequently stops on the surface, leading to mistimed shots, because of the surface’s decreased velocity, which has made life more difficult for the hitters. But now dew has arrived at the hitters’ respite. However, bowlers should have more voice because this is a day match.
