MI Emirates are favorites to win
Dubai Capitals will take on MI Emirates at the Dubai International Stadium. Match 13 of the 2022-23 ILT20 gets underway at 18:00 local time on Sunday 22nd January.
Under the guidance of West Indian Coach Phil Simmonds, it has been a poor campaign from Dubai Capitals who have lost three of their four games. Their last match, against Sharjah Warriors on Saturday, saw them lose by seven wickets, with 32 balls remaining and they need to improve with bat and ball ahead of this clash.
It was a much better, although insufficient, batting display from Dubai Capitals against Sharjah Warriors. Former England Test captain Joe Root top scored with an impressive 80 not out from 54 balls. There were other useful contributions from Dan Lawrence (34 runs from 28 balls) and captain Rovman Powell who hit 44 runs from 27 balls.
Picking up wickets continues to be a problem for Dubai Capitals and they dismissed only three batters in their defeat to Sharjah Warriors. UAE’s right arm medium fast bowler Akif Raja took 2-34 with Chamika Karunaratne taking 1-39. Overall, none of the Capitals’ bowlers were able to keep the run-rate down and must find a way to do so in this match.
Dubai Capitals won their opening game of the tournament but have since lost three in a row.
Unlike their opponents in this match, MI Emirates have had an excellent start to the ILT20 and come into this match looking to make it four wins from four games. So far, their winning margins have been by five wickets, six wickets and 49 runs. They will be looking to win this game by a significant distance.
After UAE batter, Muhammad Waseem, had top scored for MI Emirates in both of their opening two games, it was West Indian Andre Fletcher, batting at number three who top scored with 53 runs from 43 balls. Four late sixes from Najibullah Zadran were also crucial in getting over the line.
Coming into this game, MI Emirates will be pleased by their bowling returns in their last match in Abu Dhabi. In total they took seven wickets with a dismissal each for Trent Boult and Kieron Pollard. Fazalhaq Farooqi and Zahoor Khan both took two wickets each.
MI Emirates have a 100% record and are targeting a fourth successive victory.
The match will be played at the Zayed Cricket Stadium. This is a good batting wicket with god pace in the pitch. We expect a par score of over 190.
