Gulf Giants Form

After winning three matches in a row to end the group stages, the Giants lost Qualifier 1 before also losing Qualifier 2.

Qualifier 2 saw the Giants struggle against the Dhaka Capitals bowlers. James Vince top-scored with 58 as the Giants struggled to 138/6 off their 20 overs.

The Capitals raced to a nine-wicket win with 4.1 overs in hand. Liam Dawson (1/21) was the only Giants bowler to enjoy success with the ball.

Gulf Giants Team News

Gulf Giants have a strong squad and should have no trouble winning this match.

Sharjah Warriors Form

The Warriors poor season ended with them losing four of their last five matches. Their last match was a six-wicket defeat at the hands of the Desert Vipers.

Luke Wells was the only batter to reach 30 as the Warriors collapsed to 121/9 off a reduced 18 overs.

The Vipers raced to the win with six wickets for five overs in hand. Junaid Siddique (2/16) made two key early strikes, but it wasn’t enough to keep them in the hunt for the win.

Sharjah Warriors Team News

Sharjah Warriors lack the firepower that the Giants have at their disposal. They will need their top players to all contribute if they hope to start the season with a win.

Verdict

Gulf Giants v Sharjah Warriors

I am backing Gulf Giants to win. I am also backing James Vince to top score for Gulf Giants.

Tom Kohler-Cadmore is a good bet to top score for the Sharjah Warriors.
