Gulf Giants will battle it out against Abu Dhabi Knight Riders on January 25, Wednesday at the Dubai International Stadium. The Giants sit comfortably on top of the International League T20 table after bagging eight points from five games so far. They started the tournament in sublime fashion winning their first four games in a row. That said, James Vince and Co had to settle for a disappointing 21-run defeat against Sharjah Warriors in their last outing. None of their batters got going on the night as David Wiese and Chris Jordan were their highest run scorers.
Abu Dhabi Knight Riders are currently bottom of the table and are yet to record their first win, in the inaugural season of the International League T20. They have struggled since the start of the tournament in the batting as well as the bowling department. The Knight Riders lost their last outing against the MI Emirates by five wickets. The match went right down to the wire with a last-ball finish.
This feels like a battle of stellar opposites considering their position. The Giants triumphed over the Abu Dhabi-based outfit in a low scoring encounter the last time these teams clashed.
