ADKR vs SW Match Preview

The 25th match of ILT20 season 2 will pit Abu Dhabi Knight Riders against Sharjah Warriors. The match will take place at Abu Dhabi’s Sheikh Zayed Stadium and will begin at 8:00 PM IST on February 7. The Knight Riders have been in great form and are only one win away from making the playoffs. The Knight Riders had a poor season last year, but they have been outstanding in the tournament thus far. The Warriors will need a miracle to make it through the playoffs. Even though they have a slim chance of qualifying if they win both of their remaining games, their current form does not inspire confidence.

Topmost Picks for ADKR vs SW Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Abu Dhabi Knight Riders

• Michael Pepper – Michael Pepper has been in decent touch for the Knight Riders. He has made vital contributions in most games he has played.  
• Sunil Narine – Narine should return to the playing XI for this game. Narine is the team’s best bowler and given that the pitches have become favourable for spinners, he will hold the key for Knight Riders. 

Top Picks – Sharjah Warriors

• Johnson Charles – Johnson Charles has lost some form in recent games. The batter started positively but lack of runs in last few games is a concern.
• Adil Rashid – The experienced Adil Rashid will give Warriors’ bowling a huge boost. A leg spinner in these conditions is a great asset to have. Rashid is a veteran in this format of the game and the team will need him to be at his best.
