Who will win Falcon Hunters vs Heat Stormers, Qatar T10 League 2019?
The second day of the inaugural Qatar T10 League concludes with two of the strongest batting teams on paper, when Falcon Hunters and Heat Stormers go head-to-head. The match takes place at West End Park, Doha, on December 8 and is scheduled to start at 20:30 local time.
Falcon Hunters are favourites to win, having acquired top-billed overseas star Hashim Amla and partnered him with big-hitting West Indian Johnson Charles. Their side is also balanced with Tom Abell and key Qatari internationals like Kamran Khan and Mohammad Rizlan.
For Heat Stormers, meanwhile, they will be hoping their Afghan opener Mohammad Shahzad can hit top form. If he does, there are few more dangerous big-hitting openers. They also have Chandrapaul Hemraj and Sikandar Raza to add to their batting strength.
