In the third game of ILT20 season 2, Dubai Capitals and Sharjah Warriors will square off. On January 22, the game is scheduled to begin at 8:00 PM IST at the Dubai International Stadium.
In an exciting encounter, the Dubai Capitals upset the MI Emirates team by seven wickets. Nicholas Pooran was the team’s coach. After limiting MI to a manageable 159, the squad easily reached the mark in just 16 overs.
In the meantime, Sharjah Warriors had a difficult opening match. The team lost the game by 31 runs after allowing 198 runs in the first innings against the Gulf Giants. After that, the batting crumbled and the club could only muster 167 runs.
Both clubs will be looking to win the upcoming match, which seems to be a competitive contest, and both have talented players at their disposal.
The Capitals won the first game handily, and they’ll be looking for another strong showing in the upcoming one. They’ll probably start the match against Sharjah Warriors with the same starting lineup.
The squad won the game easily because of another display of excellence from Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who scorched an innings of 81 off just 39 balls. One of the most reliable batters in this game’s format has been Gurbaz.
In Australian cricket, Jake Frazer-McGurk is regarded as exceptional. He performed admirably in the Big Bash League and is regarded as Australia’s future. He scored 54 runs in just 25 balls during the last game, so he should expect another strong performance.
Sikandar Raza’s versatility makes him a great asset to the club. Both as a batter and a bowler, he excels. In the previous game, he took three wickets and was named player of the match.
Dubai Capitals Squads
David Warner (c), Rahul Chopra (wk), Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Roelof van der Merwe, Paul van Meekeren, Sam Billings, Rovman Powell, Dushmantha Chameera, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Akif Raja, Sikandar Raza, and Jason Holder.
Although the Warriors had trouble in the opening game, the team will also be reluctant to change the lineup thus early in the competition. Probably, Sharjah will also start with the same lineup.
Johnson Charles got off to a strong start in the competition, hitting 57 off of 38 balls. Even though he wasn’t playing at his most fluid, the knock helped him get off to a good start in his season, and he will now aim for regular outings.
Martin Guptill performed a clean 40-minute innings in the ILT20 competition, bringing his Super Smash form with him. In this particular game type, Guptill is a match-winner and will be crucial to the Warriors’ chances of winning going forward.
In the most recent match, Maheesh Theekshana bowled exceptionally well for the Warriors. Giants scored 198 runs in 20 overs, but Theekshana claimed 4 wickets and only conceded 15 runs.
Sharjah Warriors Squads
Tom Kohler-Cadmore (c), Niroshan Dickwella (wk), Maheesh Theekshana, Christopher Sole, Johnson Charles, Chris Woakes, Qais Ahmad, Lewis Gregory, Basil Hameed, Muhammad Jawadullah, and Daniel Sams.
