International League T20 2023, Match 17, Sharjah Warriors vs Dubai Capitals: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, and Live Streaming Details
The Sharjah Warriors and Dubai Capitals will lock horns in Match No. 17 of the International League 2023 on Thursday, January 26. The match will take place at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.
The Warriors, led by Moeen Ali, are hanging in the middle of the points table with four points and a net run rate of -0.361. However, they have started to make a comeback in the tournament with their recent victories against the Dubai Capitals and the Gulf Giants.
They will go into the game after beating the Giants by 21 runs. Fast bowler Naveen-ul-Haq was adjudged the Player of the Match for picking up a five-wicket haul, despite leaking 38 runs in 3.4 overs. While chasing 152, the Giants were bowled out for 130 in 19.4 overs.
The Capitals, led by Rovman Powell, meanwhile, started their campaign with a thumping win over Sunil Narine’s Abu Dhabi Knight Riders. However, three heavy defeats from there on pushed them on the backfoot. But a 16-run win over Kieron Pollard’s MI Emirates brought them back on track.
Skipper Powell led from the front against the Emirates and won the Player of the Match award for his knock of 97 off 41 balls with four fours and 10 sixes. After being asked to chase down 223, the Emirates finished with 206 for five.
