UAE vs HK Dream11 : Hong Kong look to make amends for their defeat on Sunday when the side step out for their third clash today
Advertisement
From Hong Kong, the opening set of fixtures in the qualifiers for next year’s ICC T20 World Cup have been a mixed bag of results. They began with a thumping win but were defeated in yesterday’s encounter, a sorry result which will deject the side for the brand of cricket it doled out.
What was especially disappointing from the side yesterday was not just the defeat but the manner in which it came about in. Underwhelming in all the departments of the game, the side were sent back to the pavilion for just 102 with their bowlers proceeding with an equally abysmal performance, seeing the side slip to a 7 wicket defeat.
Now when they take on United Arab Emirates, they’ll be well aware that they can’t afford to repeat the silly errors they committed heartedly if they are to overhaul their performance from yesterday. Their opponents come into this match with two wins from two matches, defeating Ireland by 5 wickets as they chased down the 126 run target set infront of them. With another win seeing them occupy first place in Group B, the side will be looking to come hot out off the blocks in this one and capitalise on a Hong Kong side known to blatantly collapse and put in inconsistent displays.
UAE vs Hong Kong Pitch Report
With an average score of just 142 while batting first and the side chasing winning on three out of four occasions, the discourse for the side winning the toss is simple. Win the toss and come out and field first over here and give your bowlers a free hand to get everything out of the wicket in their favour before the track settles in to make chasing relatively an easier task.

UAE vs HK Dream11 Wicket-Keeper
Choosing a wicket-keeper for today’s clash was a dicey proposition with both the sides having names who come way too down in the batting order for their sides. However what sees us side with Hong Kong’s Scoot McKechnie is the vulnerable nature of their top-order, one which can lose its way and peter towards a meek and bleak display.
UAE vs HK Dream11 Batsmen
Scramming away from picks form Hong Kong in the batting order of our Dream 11 side would have been extremely easy after their tepid display yesterday but we can’t forget how impressive the side were in their opening clash. We are going to repose faith in them today to turnover heir sorry display, making opener Nizakat Kahn our pick after he top scored for the side with 31 runs yesterday.
Meanwhile from the opposition we are getting in Muhammad Usman after his score of 21 and Darius D’Silva who ended up being run-out for 29 runs in an innings which looked set to go a long way.
UAE vs HK Dream11 All-Rounders
His 39 runs in 16 balls and four wickets with the ball against Ireland was a man of the match performance by Rohan Mustafa, making him an instant for us. The player is someone who has been handed over an integral role by his side to deliver with both the bat and ball, a player who can easily end up emanating his display from the bygone clash.
From Hong Kong meanwhile we are getting in Kinchit Shah, Aizaz Khan and Waqas Barkat, three players who look to be the best players from the side for this clash. This is a trio which is capable of easily using its affinity with both the bat and able to deliver an enterprising display, seeing us move into today’s clash with all of them.
UAE vs HK Dream11 Bowling Order
After picking up the three bowlers from Hong Kong, our entire bowling order is constituted of picks from United Arab Emirates. All of Ahmed Raza, Zahoor Khan and Junaid Siddique got a wicket for their side against Ireland, players who can easily end up adding to their tally against a despondent Hong Kong side.
Captain And Vice-Captain
We are making Rohan our side’s captain for this forthcoming clash while Shah is our vice-captain.
