It was Super Sunday for us in the International League T20 with a convincing 79-run win over the Sharjah Warriors. With this win, we moved to the third spot on the points table. Now, our focus turns to the Dubai Capitals at the same venue on Tuesday. After our recent success, we are confident in our ability to best them in this important match.
Everything clicked perfectly against the Sharjah Warriors. We posted a big score thanks to Shimron Hetmyer, Chris Lynn, Jamie Overton, and James Vince, before our bowlers took us home. Our UAE-based players, especially, played a crucial role. Aayan Khan took 2 wickets in the first 2 balls of the second innings, and Zuhaib Zubair grabbed a 4-wicket haul. With their help, we dominated the Warriors. Now, our aim is to stay consistent and carry this winning momentum against the Dubai Capitals.
The Dubai Capitals are currently in the 5th position on the points table. While they started well, winning 2 out of their first 3 games, they have struggled recently. The team has just 1 win in their last 4 matches. Their most recent match against the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders resulted in defeat. Despite this setback, they remain a strong team eager to bounce back.
In our previous encounter against the Dubai Capitals, we secured a 3-wicket victory. Our bowlers did exceptionally well to limit them to a low total. Although the chase proved challenging. This time, we aim for a more clinical performance. An exciting clash is on the horizon, and we hope you stay tuned for the action.
