Who will win Karnataka Tuskers vs Team Abu Dhabi, T10 League 2019?
If earlier results go their way, Team Abu Dhabi may still hold a slim chance of finishing in the top four ahead of this game, though realistically this is a dead rubber between them and bottom team Karnataka Tuskers. The final group game of the Abu Dhabi T10 League takes place on November 22 at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium and gets underway at 20:00 local time.
The Tuskers sit bottom of the league and have only pride to play for after defeat to Qalandars – in which they scored 98/9 – confirmed their play-off hopes were over. They have won just once so far, losing their last three completed games.
Team Abu Dhabi were frustrated by the rain last time out, though they were defending a lowly total in 118/4 against Deccan Gladiators last time out. Nevertheless, only taking one point from the two games means they start the final day with their destiny out of their hands. They will still want to finish on a high, however.

Johnson Charles: The West Indian has scored 116 runs from his last 56 balls at the top of the order, consistently posting useful starts and beyond.
Hashim Amla: His good form dipped with two from four balls last time out, but the captain remains key whether at the top of the order or further down as he is now.

Team Abu Dhabi Team News & Playing 11
AD Team News
Having brought in Avishka Fernando and Hayden Walsh Jr in the previous game of T10 League, Team Abu Dhabi were unchanged last time out. With no full game possible, Team Abu Dhabi might be unchanged this time out.
AD Key Players
Moeen Ali: The captain remains a key player, capable of fireworks with the bat and key wickets with the ball, even if he has not shown it consistently in this tournament.
Luke Wright: Scored slower than he has been in the no result last time out, but the former England man has scored 151 runs in five innings so far in this tournament – never hitting less than 20 so far.
Ben Laughlin: His last three matches (in which he has bowled) have brought figures of 1-19, 1-15 and 2-12.
AD Team Form
Team Abu Dhabi have lost their last two completed matches and the no result against Deccan Gladiators last time out could end their hopes of a top-four spot. After defeats to Maratha Arabians and Bangla Tigers, batting second and losing heavily on both occasions, they batted first last time out and posted 118/4 against Deccan Gladiators. Rohan Mustafa took an early wicket in the reply, but with the Gladiators’ score 25/1 after 2.2 overs, rain curtailed the match.
Team Abu Dhabi Predicted Playing 11
Avishka Fernando, Luke Wright, Moeen Ali (c), Wayne Madsen, Alex Davies (wk), Rohan Mustafa, Lewis Gregory, Marchant de Lange, Ben Laughlin, Hayden Walsh Jr, Harry Gurney
