New York Strikers vs Northern Warriors Match Analysis
In Match 9 of 2023 Abu Dhabi T10, New York Strikers will play Northern Warriors at the Zayed Cricket Stadium. On Friday, December 1, 2023, at 15:30 local time, the game will begin.
Wednesday’s 8-wicket triumph over Bangla Tigers gave New York Strikers their first win of the 2023 Abu Dhabi T10, following their opening-day loss to Deccan Gladiators in a rematch of last year’s championship. The Strikers might take the top spot in the table if they win this early Friday match.
Northern Warriors are the only club with a perfect record going into Friday’s round of games, and they are comfortably atop the standings. After a close victory in their first game, Angelo Mathews’ team proved to be too formidable for Team Abu Dhabi, especially when it came to using the ball, as they won by ten wickets.
New York Strikers vs Northern Warriors Team Preview & Squads
New York Strikers
Although Rahmanullah Gurbaz, the Afghan opener, has not yet shown the New York Strikers his true potential in this year’s league, a player of his caliber might certainly show up and score a significant amount of runs in this match. Kusal Mendis enters this game having defeated the Bangla Tigers with a score of 50 runs without missing from just 20 balls.
Chamika Karunaratne has been the most impressive bowler for all sides thus far in this tournament, amassing six wickets in four overs with a strike rate of 4.00. Along with spinners Akeal Hosein and Sunil Narine, who should be able to limit the run rate during their stints, he will be a crucial member of the Strikers’ attack in this match.

Northern Warriors
After hitting 52 not out from 27 balls in the last game, Hazratullah Zazai stole the show. He’ll try to continue where he left off in this encounter. Kennar Lewis finished undefeated and hit seven boundaries, matching Zazai. For the Warriors, everything appears to be going well at bat, with James Neesham and Colin Munro available to chip in when needed.
Thus far in this competition, elite spin bowlers have demonstrated their ability to dominate hitters, and on Thursday, Tabraiz Shamsi emerged victorious with scores of 2/17, proving that fact. Shamsi will be difficult to handle in this game, and Mathews has shown that he can consistently take wickets.

Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi
The teams in this match have won the toss three times before in this competition, and each time they have opted to field first. We thus expect that on Friday, both skippers will choose to field first. Humidity levels for Friday’s first game of the tripleheader will be slightly over 50%, but they will remain constant and won’t affect the game. From beginning to end, the temperature will be 27 degrees, with sunny skies.
The field is in good condition, and Thursday’s championship match featured the highest-scoring game of the competition. Batters do not worry about bounce irregularities or wicket pace when they approach the crease.
