DB vs DG Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing-11 Updates for Today's Abu Dhabi T10 League Match - Feb 1st, 2021
Match 15 of the Abu Dhabi T10 League 2021 has the Delhi Bulls taking on the Deccan Gladiators at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium on Monday.
The Delhi Bulls have been one of the more impressive teams in this competition with two wins in three games.
With a power-packed batting unit led by Evin Lewis, the Bulls have scored runs for fun. Their only loss has come against a resilient Northern Warriors side.
With ample depth in both the batting and bowling departments, the Bulls will be looking to bounce back to winning ways although it is easier said than done heading into this fixture.
Their opponents, Deccan Gladiators, have won only one out of the three league games so far.
Although the duo of Azam Khan and Kieron Pollard have come up with the goods more often than not, their batting looks relatively weak compared to their opponents.
However, they possess two all-time great spinners in Imran Tahir and Sunil Narine, both of whom have shown glimpses of what they are capable of with the ball.
With a decent side in place, the Gladiators would also fancy their chances ahead of this fixture against the Bulls.
The Bulls edge the Gladiators on paper owing to their superior depth in the batting department.
However, Kieron Pollard would be itching to get one over his mate Dwayne Bravo, who is the opposition captain.
With both teams eyeing a return to winning ways, another entertaining game of cricket beckons at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium on Monday.

Pitch Report
Although this is the third game of the day, the pitch should play out nicely for the batsmen. With the ball skidding on nicely under the lights, the bowlers will have to be smarter with their lines and lengths.
While there is some swing on offer early on, the spinners should come into play in the middle overs, making for a slightly even contest between bat and ball.
Both teams will want to chase upon winning the toss with 100 being par at this venue.
