Dubai Giants’ last win came against Colombo Lions who they beat by 7 wickets in Match 5 with the batters chasing down their target of 144 with 12 balls remaining. Gurkareet Singh Mann and Saurabh Tiwary were the two key batters in that match and we can expect the opening pair of Richard Levi and Shaun Marsh to be key in this clash.

This will be the third game in three days for Punjab Royals who could well be showing signs of fatigue by the time this match gets underway! However, they could find they have a bit of extra energy after beating Delhi Devils by 6 wickets in Match 10 on Wednesday.

Two batters stood out for Punjab Royals in the last game with skipper Tillakaratne Dilshan hitting 59 runs from 36 balls at the top of the order and Anton Devcich enjoying the role of ‘Finisher’ as he hit 33 not out from 17 balls. Look out for Cameron White and Dwayne Smith in the top four also making an impact in this game.
PUNRS Team Bowling
Monty Panesar, who was always a spinner who enjoyed bowling on a pitch with pace and bounce, impressed in the last game taking 2/16 from his three overs and we expect him to be a threat again in this match along with the left-arm pace of Rahat Ali.
