Abu Dhabi T10 2022: Match 1, NYS vs BT Match Prediction: Who will win today's T10 League match?

The curtain-raiser of the  Abu Dhabi T10 League 2022 will see the New York Strikers lock horns with the Bangla Tiger at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday, November 23.

The New York Strikers are one of the new entrants in this competition along with the Morrisville Samp Army and they would be looking to create a good first impression by registering their maiden victory.

The Strikers will be led by the iconic Caribbean all-rounder Kieron Pollard and have a wealth of experience in the form of Paul Stirling, Eoin Morgan, Andre Fletcher, Wahab Riaz, etc.

The Bangla Tigers, on the other hand, have been one of the best sides on paper in the last five editions, but are yet to make a appearance in the final. The side led by veteran Bangladesh all-rounder and T20I skipper Shakib Al Hasan would be hoping to go all the way this time around.

The Tigers have a well-balanced squad for this season with the likes of seasoned Australian all-rounders Ben Cutting, and, Daniel Christian, Pakistan pace sensation Mohammad Amir, etc.
