On Saturday afternoon at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, the Gulf Giants will face the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders in Match 28 of the 2024 International League T20. Both teams have already qualified for the playoffs, with the Giants in second place and the Knight Riders in third. Gulf Giants enter this match having defeated Sharjah Warriors, Dubai Capitals, and MI Emirates in their previous three games, so the pressure should be off with progression to the next stage already secured. Prior to their 7-wicket loss to Sharjah Warriors on Wednesday, the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders had won three games in row. However, they will treat it as a blip.

This should be a fascinating match in Dubai on Saturday afternoon, with a pitch that will suit all types of bowlers. Although the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders have some destructive T20 batters, the Gulf Giants have the players who have scored the most points in the last week. We expect the Gulf Giants to win. Considering the team combination, Gulf Giants is expected to win this match.
