Abu Dhabi Knight Riders
The Abu Dhabi Knight Riders weren’t in the best of form last season but began the current season on a positive note by defeating the Sharjah Warriorz in a high-scoring encounter.
The Knight Riders put up a brilliant batting effort to post 233 runs on Wednesday. While the opening pair of Alex Hales and Michael Pepper got the team off to a tentative start, it was the middle order that propelled them to victory.
Liam Livingstone played a belligerent knock of 82 runs from just 38 balls and will continue to be a vital cog in the Knight Riders’ batting line-up. One of the biggest strengths for the team is the sheer number of all-rounders in the squad.
Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Sherfane Rutherford, and Brandon McMullen are all quality players who can contribute with the bat as well as the ball. The seamers did an excellent job in the previous match, with Olly Stone, George Garton, and Andre Russell picking up two wickets each.
Sunil Narine, who is known for his excellent economy rate, will lead the spin department along with Piyush Chawla.
Abu Dhabi Knight Riders Expected Playing 11
Michael Pepper (WK), Alex Hales, Alishan Sharafu, Liam Livingstone, Andre Russell, Sherfane Rutherford, Sunil Narine (C), George Garton, Olly Stone, Piyush Chawla, Brandon McMullen

Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
The Sharjah Cricket Stadium usually offers good batting surfaces, and the previous match played here saw an aggregate of more than 400 runs being scored. The surface has some green patches, and the new ball could move around a bit. However, once the ball gets older, playing shots will get easier.
The team winning the toss will aim for the 200-run mark. The spinners are likely to struggle here and have to be accurate with their line and length.
The weather is likely to remain cloudy with temperatures between 25 and 30 degrees.
DV vs ADKR: Who Will Win?
Both teams began their campaign with a victory and will be eager to get a similar outcome from this match as well. We feel that the Knight Riders have an edge here as they possess a stronger batting unit, which could be an advantage for them.
Bet on Abu Dhabi Knight Riders to win.
