DG vs QQ Team Previews

Deccan Gladiators

The Deccan Gladiators are the defending champions for this season and have started their defence in style, winning back-to-back matches as they head into this contest.

The Deccan Gladiators boast one of the strongest batting line-ups in the league. Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Nicholas Pooran are two of the most explosive batsmen in the shortest format and will look to give the team a solid start in this match.

Marcus Stoinis and David Weise were brilliant in the previous match as they put up a partnership of 105 runs in just 43 deliveries. Such is the form of the top four batsmen that the middle order, which is made up of Andre Russell and Laurie Evans, is yet to face a delivery.

The Gladiators have a seam-heavy bowling unit consisting of Richard Gleeson, Luke Wood, Lahiru Kumara, and Ibrar Ahmed, while Akeal Hosein remains the sole specialist spinner.

Quetta Qavalry

Quetta Qavalry, which is making its debut in the T10 league this year, has put up an excellent performance so far, winning both matches. However, they have a tough job at hand as their opponents are in equally good form.

Quetta is likely to stick with its opening pair of Evin Lewis and Andries Gous. While the duo started off well in the previous match, they were unable to convert those starts into a big knock. The team’s biggest strength lies in its middle order.

Khawaja Nafay, Liam Livingstone, and Muhammad Waseem are all in good touch and are capable of playing the big shots with ease. Nafay, in particular, is in good form and is the leading run-scorer for the team. In addition, Quetta has a couple of solid all-rounders in the form of Jason Holder and Fabian Allen, who add depth to the batting.

Khuzaima Tanveer and Abbas Afridi form a formidable new-ball pair and will look to pick up early wickets with the new ball, while Imran Tahir and Ali Majid will feature in the spin department.

DG vs QQ Toss Prediction

5 of the 8 matches played here so far in this season were won while batting first. However, in all those matches, the team winning the toss opted to bowl first, and we expect that trend to continue.

Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

We are expecting a good batting track for this match. The average first-inning score here so far has been around 130, and that is a par score. The seamers have been successful here as there has been movement off the seam, and the odd ball has kept low.

However, the slower bowlers need to be careful as playing across the line is easy here. The weather is likely to be clear with temperatures around 28, and plenty of humidity.

DG vs QQ: Who Will Win?

Both teams have played well in this competition and are unbeaten so far. We are therefore expecting a close contest between them. We reckon that the Deccan Gladiators hold an edge here thanks to a strong batting line-up and a bowling unit that is in good form. That said, Quetta Qavalry has some potential match-winners and is likely to put up a strong fight.

Bet on Deccan Gladiators to win.
