UAE T10 LEAGUE, 2022

CB vs TAD, 20th Match

Preview

CB and TAD will cross swords for the 20th match of the UAE T10 League, 2022. The match will be played at the sole neutral venue Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. The game is scheduled for Wednesday, November 30 at 05:30 PM. CB is in sixth place in the points table with only two wins in five matches. TAD on the other side has a similar number of wins but has one draw and one loss and has played one match less than CB. 

The Chennai team won their last match against DG by 6 wickets. DG being the two times champion in the UAE T10 League lost their second match of this season, still retaining the first spot in the points table. The Deccan franchise while batting first put up a score of 108 runs with the services of Jason Roy and Tom Kohler-Cadmore who scored 97 runs combined. In the second half, Chennai opener Daniel Lawrence smashed 40 runs off 18 balls and Carlos Brathwaite scored 27 off just 7 balls to chase the target with 3 balls to spare. It was indeed a big victory for them and will surely boost their confidence ahead of this match.

TAD also came out victorious in their previous encounter against the Morrisville Samp Army. TAD skipper Chris Lynn and James Vince scored 35 runs and 44* runs to add to a total of 100 runs for the chase. MSA who is in the second spot in the league played a horrible inning as none of their batters touched a double-digit score except Basil Hameed (47* runs off 18 balls). This marked their second victory in the league by 18 runs. 

Both the teams would push their limits in this match to climb up the ladder of the points table.

Match Details

Match: CB vs TAD, 20th Match, UAE T10 League 2022

Date: Wednesday, November 30, 2022

Time: 05:30 PM 

Venue: Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi

Pitch and Weather Report

In near times, there have been a lot of tournaments happening in Dubai. When it comes to T20I cricket, there has been a total of 63 matches at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium. The team batting second has won 35 games out of the total. 

In the T10 format of the game, it is important to get a high-scoring target on the board. Batters play a greater role than the bowling department in this game. This is because a bowler gets only 2 overs which is comparatively lesser than other formats and it is tough to execute their plans within such a short span. Hence, the captains winning the toss might prefer to bat first and score maximum runs. This will pressurise the chasing team and restrict the flow of runs. 

The average run at this venue is 135 runs and the average per over is approx 7 runs in T20I cricket. However, it would definitely change in the T10 League games.

November will be slightly cooler as compared to other months. The maximum temperature here in Abu Dhabi can reach upto 30 degrees Celsius and the lowest can be around 21 degrees Celsius. 

The report shows a bit of cloud at the end week of the month but it is unlikely to cause an impact on the league matches.
