ADKR vs SW Probable Winners:

We expect Abu Dhabi Knight Riders to win. Riders have by far the stronger team. Muhammad Waseem, Nicholas Pooran, and Tim David have all performed well for the team. Also, Andre Fletcher, Ambati Rayudu, and Dwayne Bravo improve the team’s batting. MI’s bowling is arguably the best in the tournament, with Trent Boult and Fazalhaq Farooqi in outstanding form. Even with Johnson Charles in good form, Sharjah will have a difficult time beating MI. Considering the team combination, Abu Dhabi Knight Riders is expected to win this match.
