Kieron Pollard wasted no time catching his flight from India to Abu Dhabi after West Indies’ limited-overs series with Afghanistan. He slotted straight into the team and delivered a man-of-the-match performance last time out in T10 League 2019. Sheldon Cottrell did not feature, but he is another option now available, who could slot in.
DGL Key Players
Shane Watson: Fell first ball last time out, but after top-scoring in each of the first two games – including a half-century first up – he has already proved his worth.
Kieron Pollard: The West Indies all-rounder was straight into his stride last time out, conceding 11 from his one over but then smashing four sixes on his way to 45* from 22 balls = a match-winning innings.
Zahir Khan: Claimed 1-20 last time out to move to four wickets in the tournament, proving himself opening the bowling for the Gladiators.
DGL Team Form
After losing their opening game, Deccan Gladiators have come back strong with back-to-back wins. Shane Watson hit 57* in a total of 102/1 against Delhi Bulls first up, but they lost by seven wickets despite Zahir Kahn’s 3-17. Watson top-scored again in a six-wicket against Bangla Tigers, however, after Migael Pretorius took 3-10 to limit the Tigers to 108/5. In the final game, meanwhile, Kieron Pollard’s arrival paid dividends as he smashed 45* from 22 balls to lead a chase of 111 to beat Karnataka Tuskers by five wickets.

QLD Team News
Mujeeb Ur Rahman arrives to bolster the Qalandars’ bowling line-up as they look to get back to winning ways after their heavy defeat in their final match in Group B. Samit Patel came into the team for Laurie Evans last time out, providing an extra bowling option and claiming 1-6 from hos solitary over. Whether they feel they need the extra batsman again after a poor batting display remains to be seen.
