Preview for Dream11 Fantasy

The hosts of the ongoing ICC T20 World Cup 2019, UAE have stormed back into the contest after losing their opening game to Oman. The team led by Ahmed Raza has comprehensively defeated Ireland and Hong Kong since then. Their next challenge is Jersey who won against Nigeria by 69 runs but went down to Canada by 53 runs.

The UAE are on top of the points table in Group B and will have to continue their good work to remain in top three. Jersey, on the other hand, will have to play out of their skins to go up from the fifth position. They still have to play against some of the top teams apart from the UAE and can’t afford any blip from here on.
