Match Details:

The Pool-1, Qualifier-1 of the Taipei T10 League 2020 will be played between Taiwan Dragons and Hsinchu Titans at the Yingfeng Cricket Ground in Songshan District.

The match starts at 11:30 AM local time (9:00 AM IST) (3:30 AM GMT) on May 10. This game can be viewed on the SportsTiger app.

Preview:

Taiwan Dragons and Hsinchu Titans will be taking on each other for the second time in the tournament. Their previous clash during the group stages resulted in a win for Taiwan Dragons by 20 runs. It was a high-scoring match where Dragons scored more than 100 runs and Titans fought really hard to get the result in their favour.

The Dragons have been a better side so far in the tournament, considering their record. The side has won two out of three matches. In fact, after losing their first match in the tournament, it has been quite a stunning effort by them to come back and win the next two matches.

Titans, on the other hand, have suffered two losses in their three matches. Their only win came against Taiwan Daredevils in the opening match. Having lost their next two games, Titans would aim to break their jinx and get another win under their belt.

Weather Condition/Report:

There is a high chance of rainfall in Songshan District on Sunday. With close to 80% chances of rain, the match could get cancelled if there is an interruption due to rain. The temperature will range from 24 to 33 degrees celsius.


Pitch Condition/Report:

The pitch has been doing a bit in the morning. On Saturday, the first innings of the day saw a low score. However, if the batsmen can get their eye in properly before trying to maximize their shots, there would be runs on offer. Bowlers will have to bowl tight line and lengths to get some advantage from the surface. The team winning the toss would want to bat first.

Average first innings score: 100 (Three games played at this venue on Saturday)

Record of chasing teams: Won – 1, Lost – 2
