Dubai Dare Devils will lock horns with UCC Hawks in the 8th match of the ICC Academy Champions Cup T20 2023 at the ICC Academy Ground 2 in Dubai on May 9. Dubai Dare Devils have played just one match so far, which they lost, and are placed in the third position in the rankings of Group B. UCC Hawks, on the other hand, have a similar record but, due to a poorer net run rate, are placed at the bottom of the table of Group B.

Dubai Dare Devils squared off against Alif Pharma in their last encounter, where Alif Pharma won the toss and elected to bat. Pharma started well and looked good, with their opener Abdul Khaliq scoring a fantastic fifty. Their middle order failed to contribute, but a good finish was provided by Irfan by the fag end of the innings, which led them to a total of 159 runs for the loss of nine wickets. Dare Devils got off to a worse start as their top order was back in the hut for an aggregate of eight runs. A good third-wicket partnership kept them in the game, but the match was gone for good as soon as they were removed. Pharma won the match by 17 runs.

UCC Hawks played last against Alif Pharma, where Alif Pharma won the toss, and they elected to bat. Pharma players were intent from the first ball looking to make the most of the situation. Three players scoring their individual half-centuries and a strong finish by the end resulted in Pharma putting up a huge score of 231 runs at the expense of four wickets. On the other hand, Hawks had a disastrous start and could never recover from it. They lost wickets regularly and could only score 106 runs by the end. Hence, Pharma won the match by 125 runs easily.

Pitch Report

The track at the ICC Academy Ground is batting-friendly, where the batters get full value for their shots. Meanwhile, bowlers will have to maintain tight lines and lengths to control the flow of runs. Chasing the total would be a preferred option here, with the average first-inning score being 166.

Player Picks

8
C

Mohamed Hanif Saipillai DDD | BAT

Hanif was sensational in the last game, where he took as many as five wickets in his quota of four overs for just 23 runs. He should be leading your fantasy team.

8.5
C

Gurkirat Singh UCH | BAT

Singh was phenomenal in the previous match, where he not only scalped three wickets with the ball but also scored 15 runs with the bat and remained unbeaten. He can be another good choice for the captaincy role.

9

Aziz Ansari DDD | BOWL

Ansari looked in good touch in the last game, scoring a fluent-looking 46 off 40 balls. He can be a good pick for your team in this tournament.

6

Kiran Naidu DDD | BAT

Naidu was playing quite well in the last match too. He amassed 40 runs from 30 balls at a strike rate of 129.03 and should find a place in your team.

8.5

Thinus Steyn UCH | ALL

Steyn showed a good all-round performance in the last match, where he scored 20 runs and picked up a wicket as well. He should be a good budget pick for your side.

8.5

Muhammad Luqman-I DDD | BOWL

Luqman proved to be a little expensive but had done his job. He picked up one important wicket in his two overs and gave away 20 runs.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

8.5

Pratik Shettigar

UCH | WK

Pratik could score only one run in the last game and could not contribute to the team in any other manner. He should not be picked up.

8

Avtar Singh

UCH | ALL

Avtar played the last game for his team but could only manage to score two runs in the match. He should be dropped from your team.
