Match Details

Match: Bollywood Kings vs Pakistan Legends- 2nd Friendship Cup UAE Match

Venue: Sharjah Cricket Stadium, UAE

Date & Time: March 5th at 8:15 PM IST

Pitch Report:

As always, the pitch in Sharjah should be a batting beauty. The ball comes onto the bat extremely well with plenty of value for the batter’s shots. The explosive stroke-makers can trust the surface and play in the line of the ball with not much expected to be in favour of the bowlers. The boundary sizes are small and the ball usually flies over the fence much often. The captain winning the toss should be looking to field first.

Probable Playing XIs for Bollywood Kings vs Pakistan Legends

Bollywood Kings:

Suniel Shetty, Sohail Khan, Aftab Shivdasani, Riteish Deshmukh, Bobby Deol, Shabbir Ahluwalia, Saqib Saleem, Kunal Khemu, Sharad Kelkar, Vatsal Seth, Apoorva Lakhia

Probable Top Performers

Probable best batter of the match

Imran Nazir

Pakistan’s Imran Nazir was a more than decent opener for his team during his playing career for the national team. The right-handed batter is elegant in his stroke play and has a wide range of shots. The fact that he is likely to open for his team in their first game of the tournament, Nazir could make the most of the batting powerplay and batter friendly playing conditions. Pakistan Legends would be expecting the talented batter to get them off to a flying start.

Probable best bowler of the match

Mohammad Irfan

Pakistani fast bowler Mohammad Irfan has troubled many batters in his hay days on the back of his tall stature. Standing at 7 feet 6 inches tall, Irfan can push the Bollywood Kings’ batters on the back foot. He would be expected to find good bounce in Sharjah and could well be amongst the wickets. Irfan possesses the pace to get through the defence of opposition batters and Pakistan Legends will be counting on him to provide them with regular breakthroughs.

Today’s Match Prediction: Pakistan Legends to win the match.
