DC vs ADKR Team Previews
Dubai Capitals
With consecutive losses to start the season, the defending champions are struggling at the moment. While there are plenty of matches yet to be played, the Capitals will hope to turn things around sooner rather than later.
The Capitals will expect a strong start from Shayan Jahangir and Sediqullah Atal in this match. While Atal is the leading run-scorer for the team, he has been unable to convert his starts into big knocks. While the Capitals have a couple of big hitters in the middle order like Jordan Cox and Rovman Powell, they lack specialist batsmen who can stay longer at the crease and hold on to one end.
That said, the team does have some good all-rounders, including James Neesham, Gulbadin Naib, Dasun Shanaka, and David Willey. However, it remains to be seen how they stack up against Abu Dhabi’s strong bowling attack.
With Mustafizur Rahman available for selection, the Capitals have a strong pace attack consisting of Rahman, Muhammad Jawadullah, David Willey, and Dasun Shanaka. Waqar Salamkheil is the team’s best bowler so far and will continue to lead the spin department.
Dubai Capitals Expected Playing 11
Sediqullah Atal, Shayan Jahangir (WK), Rovman Powell, Dasun Shanaka (C), Mohammad Nabi, Gulbadin Naib, Mustafizur Rahman, Waqar Salamkheil, Muhammad Jawadullah, Jordan Cox, Haider Ali

Abu Dhabi Knight Riders
After ending with the wooden spoon last year, the Knight Riders seemed to have scripted a nice turnaround as they began their campaign on a positive note. However, the team lost its second match and needs to bounce back here.
A lot will depend on the opening pair of Alex Hales and Phil Salt. They are among the most consistent batsmen in the ILT20 and will hope to give the team a solid start in this match. Hales appeared to be in good touch in the previous match as he scored a half-century.
The middle order has a solid batsman in the form of Unmukt Chand, who got off to a decent start in the previous match. However, the team’s biggest strength comes from its all-rounders, including Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, Liam Livingstone, Alishan Sharafu, and Sherfane Rutherford. Each of them has plenty of experience playing under these conditions and can make an impact with the bat and the ball.
Livingstone has been the pick of the batting line-up, and the Knight Riders need another solid innings from him. The team has a well-balanced bowling attack, led by Ajay Kumar and Olly Stone. They are likely to begin the proceedings with the new ball and will be supported by Livingstone and Russell.
Sunil Narine and Piyush Chawla are the two specialist spinners.

DC vs ADKR Toss Prediction
The team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
The pitch in Dubai is a bit tricky and isn’t the easiest to bat on. The new ball does move around a bit, and there is something in it for the spinners as well. The batsmen need to be careful while selecting their shots and need to treat the deliveries on their merit. A score of around 160 is a par score here.
The dew could play an important role during the second half. The weather will remain clear by humid with temperatures of over 25 degrees.
DC vs ADKR: Who Will Win?
We are backing the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders to win this match. They have a well-balanced squad at their disposal, and the batting line-up looks especially strong. Also, the team has some quality bowlers who can give them an advantage.
Bet on Abu Dhabi Knight Riders to win.
