International T20 League

26th Match: ADKR vs MIE

 

Preview

The 26th game of the International T20 League will occur between ADKR and MIE on Friday, 3rd February 2023, in Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi, at 07:30 PM IST. This tournament is a nightmare for the ADKR as they lost all their matches (thankfully, they have 1 point due to an NR game). In comparison, MIE is relaxing in the 3rd position with 9 points in eight matches. 

ADKR lost their last game by 7 wickets against DC. ADKR has no chance of qualifying for the playoffs from now on. Skipper Narine has to lead from the front to give some cherished moments to the fans. Joe Clarke and Paul Stirling must build a strong opening partnership to par MIE’s strong bowling lineup. The middle order needs to fire up in this game as Brandon King, Dhanajaya De Silva, Charith Asalanka, Narine, and Russell haven't performed as per their repo.

On the bowling side, ADKR will expect remarkable performances from Matiullah Khan and Lahiru Kumara with the new ball. Narine is the most experienced bowler from his side, and he’s yet to use his advantage. Akeal Hosein and Russell will play a crucial role in this match. 

Kieron Pollard's team suffered a sad defeat against the GG, falling short by five wickets. Despite a vigorous defense of the modest total, the team lost on the game's last shot. However, they now have three points and will want to win this game to clinch a postseason spot.

Andre Fletcher and Muhammad Waseem must establish a potent opening wicket combination in this game. Along with Basil Hameed, Pollard, and Nicholas Pooran, the side hopes for success in the middle order. Down the order, Najibullah Zadran, Dwayne Bravo, and Jordan Thompsom increase the team's hitting power down the order.

Given their success in this competition, the team would want to see Trent Boult and Fazalhaq Farooqi strike early. Imran Tahir must bowl tight spells in the middle overs with Bravo while taking advantage of the favorable circumstances at this location. Pollard and Jordan Thompson improve the bowling options for the team.

Match Prediction

Even if MIE has had a slump, their most recent performances have been far better than those of ADKR, who are in danger of losing a match-all battle. Although Joe Clarke is a great addition, he seldom wins games in this style. In this match, MIE will resume its winning ways in this game against ADKR.
