Sharjah Warriorz vs Desert Vipers Predictions

The Vipers are top of the table after five wins from six matches. The Warriorz are struggling to find wins, having lost three of their five matches.

Desert Vipers’ Fakhar Zaman has scored 67 & 71* in his last 4 innings.
Desert Vipers’ Alex Hales has scored 34, 58, 34 & 23* in his last 4 innings.
Sharjah Warriorz’s Tom Kohler-Cadmore has scored 51, 56* & 83* in his last 3 innings.
Sharjah Warriorz’s Johnson Charles scored 37 & 59 his last 3 innings.

Head-to-Head

The Vipers have won two of their three matches against the Warriorz, including the last two on the bounce.

Sharjah Warriorz Form

The Warriorz suffered a 10-wicket defeat in their last match, against the Vipers. They have lost three of their last four matches.

Jason Roy scored an undefeated 30 off 34 balls, but none of his team-mates passed 11 as the were rolled for 91 off 19.1 overs.

The Vipers knocked their runs off without loss and with 10 overs in the bank.

Sharjah Warriorz Team News

Sharjah Warriorz need their top order to step up to the plate in order to post a competitive score or be able to chase a target.

Desert Vipers Form

The Vipers bounced back from a six-wicket defeat to the Dubai Capitals to pick up their fifth win from their six matches this season.

Mohammad Amir (4/24) and Wanindu Hasaranga (3/10) tore through the Warriorz’s top-order, reducing them to 45/7. They folded for 91 in the final over.

Fakhar Zaman bludgeoned four sixes and seven fours in scoring 71 off 39 balls as the Vipers powered to a 10-wicket win with 10 overs to spare.

Desert Vipers Team News

Desert Vipers are in good form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team.

Verdict

Sharjah Warriorz v Desert Vipers

I am backing Desert Vipers to win. I am also backing Fakhar Zaman to top score for Desert Vipers.

Tom Kohler-Cadmore is a good bet to top score for the Sharjah Warriorz.
