ADKR vs DV Team Previews
Abu Dhabi Knight Riders
The Abu Dhabi Knight Riders are coming into this match on the back of four consecutive losses and are currently at the bottom of the points table. They are already halfway through their journey in the group stages, and another loss will leave them in a precarious situation.
Despite having a strong opening pair of Phil Salt and Alex Hales at its disposal, the team has failed to get good starts as the duo has struggled against the new ball. The team needs at least one of them to stay longer and play a big knock.
The Abu Dhabi Knight Riders have plenty of all-rounders in the squad, but that has also become a weakness for them as they lack specialist batsmen who can keep the scoreboard moving during the middle overs. Andre Russell, Liam Livingstone, and Alishan Sharafu have contributed in patches, but that hasn’t impacted the team’s fortunes.
The inconsistencies continue in the bowling unit as well. A lot was expected from the spin duo of Piyush Chawla and Sunil Narine, but they have managed to pick only three wickets each. The seamers have fared better in comparison, but they, too, have been expensive at times.
Abu Dhabi Knight Riders Expected Playing 11
Alex Hales, Phil Salt (WK), Sherfane Rutherford, Liam Livingstone, Brandon McMullen, Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, Jason Holder (C), Ajay Kumar, Ibrar Ahmed, George Garton

Desert Vipers
The Vipers are in red-hot form at the moment and have won all six matches they have played. They are currently sitting pretty at the top of the table and are the first team to qualify for the playoffs.
Fakhar Zaman and Max Holden have given the team some steady starts this season and will look to do the same in this match as well. The Vipers boast of a strong middle order consisting of batsmen, including Vriitya Aravind, Hasan Nawaz, Dan Lawrence, and Shimron Hetmeyer. They also have a couple of capable all-rounders like Sam Curran and Tom Bruce, who add depth to the batting.
Curran was in excellent form on Sunday as he scored a brilliant half-century under pressure to take his team over the line in the last over of the match. Bowling is another area where the team has excelled. Khuzaima Tanveer, David Payne, and Lockie Ferguson form a strong pace attack, with Tanveer being the leading wicket-taker of the team with 10 wickets.
Noor Ahmad has picked up 9 wickets and will continue to lead the spin department.
Desert Vipers Expected Playing 11
Fakhar Zaman, Max Holden, Shimron Hetmeyer, Hasan Nawaz, Dan Lawrence, Vriitya Aravind (WK), Lockie Ferguson (C), Khuzaima Tanveer, Noor Ahmad, Naseem Shah, Sam Curran
ADKR vs DV Toss Prediction
Three of the last 4 matches played here were won while batting first. We, therefore, feel that the team winning the toss will opt to bat first.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
We are expecting a good batting surface for this match. The pitch is a bit on the dry side, and batting here will be easy, especially against the new ball. There are a few rough spots on the surface, and the spinners can expect some help as the ball gets older. A score of around 180-190 is a par score.
The weather will remain warm and humid with temperatures around 27 degrees. There might be some dew as well.
ADKR vs DV: Who Will Win?
We are backing the Desert Vipers to win. They have been clinical in their performance and are likely to continue playing well. The Knight Riders, on the other hand, have struggled on all fronts and will find it tough to defeat the Vipers.
Bet on Desert Vipers to win.
