TW vs DRX Dream11 Prediction: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Today's Playing 11 and Pitch Report for ECL T10, Play-off 3
The third play-off of the European Cricket League (ECL) 2022 has Tunbridge Wells (TW) taking on Dreux (DRX) at the Cartama Oval in Cartama on Thursday.
Tunbridge Wells have been the team to beat this week with the likes of Marcus O'Riordan and Bailey Wightman impressing with bat and ball respectively. They come into this fixture with four wins in five games and will be keen to get another win under their belts. However, their only loss during the week came against Dreux, who chased down 85 in just 3.1 overs, courtesy of Hamza Niaz and Ahmad Nabi's blitzkrieg at the top of the order. Despite the stunning win, Dreux will be wary of what Tunbridge Wells are capable of. But they will fancy another win against Williams and co. in what should be another entertaining game in Cartama.

Pitch Report
A high-scoring game is on the cards yet again with there being little help on offer for the bowlers. While there should be some movement off the surface throughout the game, the dimensions of the ground leave little room for error for the bowlers. The batters should enjoy the bounce off the surface and will look to target the shorter boundaries. The pitch should not change much during the game, with 120 being the bare minimum at the venue.
