Team Previews
Abu Dhabi Knight Riders Preview
The Abu Dhabi Knight Riders started their campaign with a disappointing loss to Desert Vipers. Batting first, they posted 166/7, with Philip Salt top-scoring with a gritty 71* off 49 balls. Alishan Sharafu contributed 46 runs but lacked support from the middle order.
The bowling unit struggled, unable to defend the target as they leaked runs, allowing the opposition to chase the target in 18.4 overs. Sunil Narine and Andre Russell took a wicket each, but key bowlers like David Willey and Jason Holder went wicketless. The Knight Riders will need a collective performance to register their first win.
Sharjah Warriorz Preview
The Sharjah Warriorz impressed in their opening match, defeating Gulf Giants by three wickets. Despite a lackluster bowling performance, where they conceded 174 runs, skipper Tim Southee led with three wickets. Contributions from Harmeet Singh and Adam Milne ensured some control in the death overs.
Chasing 175, Tom Kohler-Cadmore played a match-winning knock, scoring an unbeaten 83 off 56 balls. Rohan Mustafa chipped in with a crucial 45 runs, helping the team cross the line. The Warriorz will rely on their strong batting and experience to challenge the Knight Riders.
