Gulf Giants will take on the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders at the Dubai International Stadium on January 25, Wednesday at 7:30 pm IST. The Giants are second in the 2023 International League T20 table with four wins and eight points in five games. The Gulf team got off to an excellent start in the tournament winning their first four matches in a row. That said, they succumbed to a disappointing 21-run defeat against the Sharjah Warriors in their last outing. Their usually dependable batters, crumbled under pressure asserted by the bowling prowess of the warriors. The defeat saw the Giants slip down to second position as the Desert Vipers overtook them to claim top spot after their seven-wicket victory over MI Emirates.
The Abu Dhabi Knight Riders, on the other hand, are struggling to maintain any semblance of consistency as they sit at the bottom of the ILT20 table. The Knight Riders are yet to record their first victory in the tournament succumbing to five straight losses in a row. Sunil Narine and Co who lost against the MI Emirates in their last game will be desperate for a win to salvage their season.
