Player Picks

9
C

Nicholas Pooran EMI | WK

MI Emirates captain Nicholas Pooran could score 21 runs in the first game against Dubai Capitals. However, he is known for his exceptional batting skills in the middle and death overs. He can prove his worth in this encounter.

9
VC

James Vince GUL | BAT

Gulf Giants skipper James Vince smacked 45 runs off 35 balls, including three fours and two sixes. Known for his dashing batting skills in the powerplay overs, Vince is anticipated to be a decent vice-captain in this game.

8
C

Jamie Overton GUL | ALL

Gulf Giants bowling all-rounder Jamie Overton has scalped three wickets, conceding just 29 runs in his four-over spell. He is an impressive multiplier choice in your XI.

6

Jamie Smith GUL | BAT

Giants keeper-batter, who also opens the innings, Jamie Smith scored 42 runs off 18 balls with three fours and four sixes against Warriors. He is a brilliant top pick moving into this game.

7

Andre Fletcher EMI | BAT

Andre Fletcher played a perfect cameo at no.3, scoring 30 runs off 18 balls with three fours and two sixes in the team's season opener.

7.5

Jordan Cox GUL | WK

Gulf Giants no.3 batter Jordan Cox scored 32 runs off 22 balls with two fours and as many sixes in the team's first game of the season. With the surface assisting batters, Cox would be aiming to put up another good score.

7

Waseem Muhammad EMI | BAT

Local star batter Muhammad Waseem top-scored for MI Emirates with a 51-run knock in 26 balls with two fours and four sixes. Though his knock went in vain, he would be hoping to continue his good momentum.

8

Akeal Hosein EMI | BOWL

Akeal Hosein couldn't pick a wicket for MI Emirates in the season opener. However, he is known for his wicket-taking skills in the middle overs and shuns the run-scoring rate.

6.5

Will Smeed EMI | BAT

Will Smeed wasn't able to start the season on a good note for MI Emirates. However, he is known for his explosive batting skills in the T20 Blast and The Hundred.
