Match: New York Strikers vs Bangla Tigers, Match 1, Abu Dhabi T10 League 2022
Venue: Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi
Date and Time: 23rd November 2022, Wednesday, 5:30 PM IST
The pitch at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi will be a good one for batting. The ball will come onto the bat nicely and the batters will love their time on the crease. There will be some movement with the new ball for the pacers and they will get some extra bounce as well. The spinners will be very important as the batters will look to attack every ball and the big boundaries will assist them.
The New York Strikers have more depth in their squad, especially with the bat and they will be the favourites to win this game.
New York Strikers: Paul Stirling, Andre Fletcher (wk), Waseem Muhammad, Eoin Morgan, Kieron Pollard (c), Romario Shepherd, Jordan Thompson, Akeal Hosein, Wahab Riaz, Kesrick Williams/Izharullahq Naveed
Bangla Tigers: Evin Lewis, Hazratullah Zazai, Colin Munro, Joe Clarke (wk), Shakib Al Hasan (c), Rohan Mustafa, Ben Cutting, Benny Howell, Mohammad Amir, Matheesha Pathirana, Jacob Lintott/Jake Ball
Shakib Al Hasan: Shakib Al Hasan is a champion player and a proven match-winner. He will be one of the best captaincy picks for this match. He will bat in the middle order and bowl 2 overs as well. Shakib will fetch the majority of the points from his bowling but he can score big if he gets in.
Andre Fletcher: Andre Fletcher will be a safe captaincy option for this game. He has done well in the T10 league. He will open the innings and is capable of scoring big when on song. Fletcher generally performs well in the initial stages of the tournaments.
Evin Lewis: Evin Lewis is one of the most destructive openers in white ball cricket. He can take the game away from the opposition in a matter of a few deliveries in the T10 format. He will be an ideal captaincy choice for your fantasy teams.
Waseem Mohammad: Waseem Mohammad will be an excellent differential pick. He is arguably the best batter from UAE and is expected to bat at number 3. He can hit a long ball and is capable of scoring big once he gets going. Waseem will be a good fantasy pick, especially when the New York Strikers are batting first.
Hazratullah Zazai: We all know how destructive Hazratullah Zazai can be on his day. He has a good record in the T10 league and will be a top differential pick in fantasy cricket. He will open the innings for the Bangla Tigers. Zazai was the highest run-scorer of the last edition with 353 runs in 12 games at an average of 50.43 including 3 fifties.
Benny Howell: Benny Howell is an ideal differential pick. He can pick up a few wickets with his variations and is a hard hitter with the bat. He did well in the last season of the Abu Dhabi T10 league. Howell picked up 9 wickets in Abu Dhabi T10 League 2021.
