New York Strikers vs Northern Warriors head-to-head record

New York and the Warriors have a brief history. They have met once, in 2022, when the Strikers won by five wickets with zero deliveries to spare. Perhaps we are in for another nail-biter here.

NRW vs NYS Team Previews

Northern Warriors

The Northern Warriors are one of two unbeaten teams in the tournament so far. They will go into this fixture on the back of victories over Team Abu Dhabi and the Samp Army. Here's a big opportunity to collect a third successive win and consolidate their status at the top of the standings.

Hazratullah Zazai and Kennar Lewis have emerged as the Warriors' top run-scorers early in the tournament. Zazai has 72 runs to Lewis' 64. The Afghanistan and West Indian stars could be key to their team's performance against the Strikers. Both have a strike rate in excess of 168.

Abhimanyu Mithun, Angelo Mathews and Jimmy Neesham are the Warriors' top wicket-takers this tournament. Mathews has four to Mithun and Neesham's three each. The Indian, Sri Lankan and New Zealand stars boast plenty of international experience in this domestic tournament.

The Warriors also have Tabraiz Shamsi in their bowling ranks. The South African recruit was key to their World Cup campaign in India recently and can take that momentum into this fixture and the rest of the tournament. Shamsi is among the best wrist spinners on display in Abu Dhabi.

New York Strikers

The New York Strikers lost to the Deccan Gladiators before beating the Bangla Tigers. Another win here could push them into second position in the points standings, but they will be hard pressed against the undefeated and table-topping Northern Warriors.

Muhammad Waseem and Kusal Perera are the Strikers' leading run-scorers this tournament. They are both striking at almost 200 runs per 100 deliveries. While Perera has plenty of experience playing for Sri Lanka, Waseem is an important local asset for the United Arab Emirates.

Chamika Karunaratne has already taken six wickets in two matches in this season's Abu Dhabi T10. His economy rate is under 12 and average less than eight. That's impressive from the Sri Lankan seamer, who is bowling well in challenging conditions. Muhammad Jawadullah, meanwhile, has taken three wickets this competition.

The solid form of Jawadullah and Waseem show that this tournament isn't just about how the international players perform. It's key that homegrown talents do well in the Abu Dhabi T10. New York can lean heavily on their local duo for runs and wickets this time, too.

NRW vs NYS Toss Prediction

Six of the first eight matches of this year's Abu Dhabi T10 saw the toss-winning captain choose to bowl first. In this short format, teams prefer to chase rather than set targets.

The team to win the toss here will likely choose to bat second, too. On the two occasions a team chose to bat first this season, they lost the match.

Pitch and Conditions

Only one venue - the Zayed Cricket Stadium - is being used for this tournament. Multiple pitches are being rotated throughout. Some strips will get tired and slower, while others will be fresher and quicker.

A first-innings total of 110 should be competitive. It's worth playing two specialist spinners to at least take pace off the ball, even if much turn isn't available.

There is no rain forecast in the area on matchday. We should get a full fixture in. The weather will be hot, humid and dry.

NRW vs NYS Betting Tips

Both teams will go into this match on the back of recent wins. The Northern Warriors look better placed to win this match than the New York Strikers, though.

The Warriors have a formidable top order and an in-form collective bowling unit. The Warriors are priced as 1.99 underdogs to beat 1.82 favourites New York in this match.
