- MI Emirates’ Kusal Perera has scored 33, 56* & 23 in his last 3 innings.
- Abu Dhabi Knight Riders’ Andries Gous scored 34 against the MI Emirates on Tuesday.
- Abu Dhabi Knight Riders’ Andre Russell has scored 30, 24* & 37* in his last 5 innings.

Jason Holder (2/38) was the pick of the Knight Riders bowlers as the Emirates piled on a score of 186/6 off their 20 overs.
Kyle Mayers (22 off 14) and Andries Gous (34) got the innings off to a flying start before they lost six wickets for 49 runs. Andre Russell did his best to keep the chase going, scoring 37* off 23 balls (three fours, three sixes), but they could only reach 158/9 off their 20 overs.

The Knight Riders’ batters need to come to the party with some big runs to give their side a change of beating the Emirates.
Verdict
I am backing MI Emirates to win. I am also backing Nicholas Pooran to top score for MI Emirates.
Andries Gous is a good bet to top score for the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders.
