UAE vs USA Predictions

It’s been a rough tournament for the two teams battling to avoid the wooden spoon, with both losing all of their group matches. The UAE have lost three of their five matches by 111 runs or more, with only one batter passing 50, while the USA batters have hit two 100s and three 50s.

USA’s Shayan Jahangir (210 runs) is 17th in the CWC Qualifiers runs list.
USA’s Gajanand Singh scored 101* against the West Indies.
UAE’s Vriitya Aravind has scored 39, 49 & 44 in his 5 CWC Qualifier innings.
UAE’s Muhammad Waseem has scored 27, 39, 36 & 45 in his last 5 innings.

Head-to-Head

The USA have won three of the last five meetings between the two sides. The UAE claimed one win, while another match was abandoned.

USA Form

The USA came off a 304-run hammering against hosts Zimbabwe to suffer a six-wicket loss against Ireland.

The USA were bowled out for 196 off 42.4 overs, with Sushant Modani and Saiteja Mukkamalla each scoring 55.

Ireland raced to the win off 34.2 overs for the loss of four wickets, with Nosthush Kenjige (2/41) picking up the wickets of both Irish openers.

The USA’s batters are looking good to sign the tournament off in style against the UAE’s struggling bowling attack.

After losing all of their group games, the UAE lost to Nepal by three wickets in the 7th Place Playoff Semi-Final.

The UAE were bowled out for 181 off 46.5 overs, with Vriitya Aravind top-scoring with 44 off 75 balls.

Muhammad Jawadullah (3/46) had Nepal in early trouble, but they recovered to reach their target off 43.2 overs for the loss of seven wickets.

UAE Team News

The UAE will need their best batting performance if they have any hope of sneaking a first win in the tournament.

Verdict

UAE v USA

I am backing the USA to win. I am also backing Shayan Jahangir to top score for the USA.

Vriitya Aravind is a good bet to top score for the UAE.

USA win
