Match Details:

The first Qualifier of the Abu Dhabi T10 League 2021 season will be played between Delhi Bulls and Northern Warriors on 5th February, at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.

This match will start at 05:30 PM IST (04:00 PM local time). It will be live on Sony Sports Network and live streaming is available on Sony LIV.

Preview: 

An emphatic triumph over the then table-toppers Qalandars helped Delhi Bulls secure pole position in the Super League table, which implies they will have two shots at qualification for the final. In the Qualifier 1 tie, they will take on Northern Warriors.

Like the Bulls, Northern Warriors also had a great campaign so far, losing just one out of their six games. When these two teams clashed previously for a Group A game, Northern Warriors came out victorious by a margin of 32 runs. They will be aiming to repeat that, but after their brilliant performance against Qalandars, the Bulls will be buzzing with confidence.
