Sharjah Warriors are favorites to win
Desert Vipers will take on Sharjah Warriors in match 4th of the ILT20. The game gets underway at 6:00 PM local time on Sunday 15th January.
Desert Vipers looks a strong contender to win the maiden ILT20. They have some of the best players in this format of the game at their disposal. Players like Alex Hales, Colin Munro, Adam Lyth, Sherfane Rutherford will form the core of batting. The bowling will rest on the shoulders of Tymal Mills, Benny Howell, Tom Curran among others.
Alex Hales and Colin Munro will be the batters to watch out for from Desert Vipers. The two players recently played in the Big Bash League and looked in great form. Both are destructive batters and once get going are very hard to stop.
Tom Curran and Benny Howell are the bowlers who can turn the game for Desert Vipers. Both pacers rely on variations, which is exactly what the bowlers need to do on dead pitches of the UAE.
This is the first game of the team in the tournament but quite a few players like Alex Hales, Colin Munro and Sam Billings have been part of BBL.
Sharjah Warriors too look a real force. Players like Moeen Ali, Evin Lewis, Dawid Malan, Mohammad Nabi bring a lot of quality to the batting department. Afghanistan duo of Naveen ul Haq and Noor Ahmed along with Chris Woakes and Moeen Ali make up a very strong bowling lineup as well.
Evin Lewis might be inconsistent at times but he is a match winner with the bat. Being an opener, he will get the best conditions to bat so there are high chances that he will do well in the match, especially if Sharjah bat second as dew will help. Dawid Malan is also a batter to watch out for owing to his tremendous batting skills against the spinners.
Chris Woakes with his raw pace and accuracy can be a game changer for Sharjah while we are very interested in watching Naveen ul Haq as well as he has been very impressive for Afghanistan in recent times.
Sharjah Warriors haven't played a game in the tournament yet.
The match will be played at Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai. The surface looks good to bat early on but gets slower as the ball gets softer. Getting used to the pace before playing shots will be key. A score of 180 should is needed to feel safe.

It's very hard to pick a clear winner between the two teams as both teams boast of quality players. However, Sharjah has players who are good against the spinners and also they have a very potent bowling attack which makes us see Sharjah Warriors as slight favourites.
