Preview for Dream11 Fantasy

Shahid Afridi’s Qalandars will take on Moeen Ali’s Team Abu Dhabi in the third game of cricket. This shortest possible form of cricket is undoubtedly one of the most entertaining. It often leaves the aficionadi on the edge of the seats and makes them watch the game in awe. The opening combination of Luke Ronchi and Tom Banton for the Qalandars could be one of the deadliest.

Team Abu Dhabi is no less either and has got two emerging talents in Paras Khadka and Rohan Mustafa as its openers. Both these teams are filled with some high-quality all-rounders and they bat quite deep. In this format, which is usually bat versus bat, both the sides will be eager to showcase their talent in this opening fixture of theirs.

Weather Report

The humidity levels will increase slightly during the evening. This might quicken the pitch and make life easy for the batsmen.

Pitch Condition/Report:

One could expect a run-feast in this encounter. The pitch is expected to be a great one for batsmen to play their shots on. Bowlers usually have to run for cover at this venue and in this format.
