Preview

Dubai Capitals (DC) will take on Gulf Giants (GG) in the 16th match of the ILT20 2025. This match will be played at Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. Gulf Giants have one win in four matches and are bottom of the table. On the other hand, Dubai Capitals have two wins and three losses in five matches and are placed fourth in the table. 

Dubai Capitals won the previous match against Desert Vipers by six wickets. Desert Vipers were bowled out for 139 runs while batting first and it was a below-par score on that surface. In the chase, Gulbadin single-handedly took the game away from Vipers with a spectacular knock of 78 runs from just 51 balls. They will be looking to bounce back after that loss.

On the other hand, Gulf Giants suffered a defeat in the previous match against Abu Dhabi Knight Riders by 37 runs. Abu Dhabi Knight Riders scored 176 in the first innings and Gulf Giants were restrcited to just 139. They have had a poor season so far and find themselves bottom of the table. They will be keen to bounce back. This promises to be an exciting match between these two sides.
