Preview:

In the second match of today, Fujairah will face Dubai in the 5^th match of Emirates D10 2021. Fujairah lost their first match of the tournament against Sharjah by 9 runs. Despite having star players in the likes of Waseem Muhammad and Chirag Suri, they fell short of the target. Alishan Sharafu and Ahmed Raza have made useful contributions with the bat in the losing cause. They have been pushed down to the fourth spot in the standings.

On the other hand, in the tournament opener, Dubai lost to Emirates Blues by 9 wickets. Despite setting a target of 121, they couldn’t defend the score and were completely outplayed by the top 3 batsmen of Emirates Blues. They have got plenty of firepower at their disposal, but their bowlers will have to support the batsmen if they want to win close contests. Fahad Nawaz and Ronak Ponaly had a good day with the bat and their team will expect the same repeat performances from them against the Fujairah. It will be an interesting clash as both sides have lost their respective first matches.

FUJ vs DUB Top Picks for Today’s Dream11 Match:

Fujairah skipper Ahmed Raza was impressive with his all-round performances against Sharjah. He fought bravely and scored a 6-ball 20*. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough for his side to get past the target. He also picked up a wicket at an economy of 9 runs per over.

Chirag Suri had the rarest of failures in the first game against Sharjah, as he was undone by the bowling of Kashif Daud for just 5 runs. He is coming back from a good  Abu Dhabi T10 tournament which held last month.

The leading run-scorer of the last D20 tournament, Waseem Muhammad got out for just 4 runs after hitting a boundary. He is, however, a dangerous batsman and is very hard to stop if he gets going.

Alishan Sharafu was the top-scorer for Fujairah in the run-chase against Sharjah, scoring 32 runs from 26 balls.

Fahad Nawaz batted extremely well while opening the batting for Dubai. He was at the crease till the end and scored 66 runs at a strike rate of 194.1.

Ronak Panoly blasted the Emirates Blues’ bowlers in the death overs, scoring 31 runs from just 14 balls.

Wajid Khan got the start he wanted but failed to capitalize on it in the first game. He scored 19 runs from just 10 balls and we can expect big scores from him in the upcoming matches.
