ABD vs SJH T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, ILT20 2024
Abu Dhabi Knight Riders and Sharjah Warriors will clash in the 25th match of the ILT20 season 2. The match will be played at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi and will start at 8:00 PM IST on February 7.
Knight Riders have picked some great form and are just a win away from securing a place in the playoffs. The Knight Riders had a poor run last year but they have been brilliant in the tournament so far. The team is placed second on the points table with five wins and three defeats. They defeated Sharjah Warriors by seven wickets in the last game.
The Warriors will need a miracle to go through the playoffs. Even though there is a remote possibility of them qualifying if they win both their remaining games, their form does not make us too optimistic.

Abu Dhabi Knight Riders Team News & Playing 11
ABD Team News
Sunil Narine was not part of the playing XI in the previous game and the Knight Riders will surely get their ace spinner and captain back. Given that the team has achieved successful results in the last three games, Knight Riders are likely to make no further changes.
ABD Key Players
- Michael Pepper - Michael Pepper has been in decent touch for the Knight Riders. He has made vital contributions in most games he has played. He has scored 188 runs in six games and is the team’s second leading scorer so far.
- Andre Russell - Russell has been at his destructive best in the tournament. This is probably one of the few tournaments where Russell has been very consistent. Given his batting position and the way he plays, if Russell can have a good tournament, the chances of a team winning increases significantly. Russell has scored 192 runs at a strike rate of 228.
- Sunil Narine - Narine should return to the playing XI for this game. Narine is the team’s best bowler and given that the pitches have become favourable for spinners, he will hold the key for Knight Riders.
ABD Team Form
Knight Riders have picked up great form in the last few games. The team heads into the match on back of three back to back wins.
Abu Dhabi Knight Riders Predicted Playing 11
Alishan Sharafu, Joe Clarke, Sam Hain, Michael-Kyle Pepper (wk), Ravi Bopara, Laurie Evans, Andre Russell, Imad Wasim, David Willey, Sunil Narine (c), Joshua Little, Ali Khan (SUB)
Sharjah Warriors Team News & Playing 11
SJH Team News
Nothing has got right for the Warriors this season but the return of players like Liam Livingstone and Adil Rashid make them look much stronger. The team is likely to go with an unchanged playing XI.
SJH Key Players
- Johnson Charles - Johnson Charles has lost some form in recent games. The batter started positively but lack of runs in last few games is a concern. He has scored 232 runs in the tournament so far. Charles need to come good if the team has to make a comeback.
- Liam Livingstone - The addition of Liam Livingstone has come as a shot in the arm for the Warriors in ILT20 2024. Livingstone is one of the most destructive batters out there. If he can have a good game, Warriors will end up on the winning side.
- Adil Rashid - The experienced Adil Rashid will give Warriors’ bowling a huge boost. A leg spinner in these conditions is a great asset to have. Rashid is a veteran in this format of the game and the team will need him to be at his best.
SJH Team Form
The Warriors have been very ordinary. The batters have not scored runs which has resulted in the team losing their last three matches. Sharjah have been bowled out for 129, 108 and 75 in last three games.
Sharjah Warriors Predicted Playing 11
Niroshan Dickwella (wk), Johnson Charles, Tom Kohler-Cadmore (c), Joe Denly, Sean Williams, Liam Livingstone, Daniel Sams, Junaid Siddiqui, Adil Rashid, Maheesh Theekshana, Muhammad Jawadullah, James Fuller (SUB)
