Sharjah Warriors will lock horns against Desert Vipers in the 23rd game of the ongoing International League T20 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Tuesday. Desert Vipers are currently in second place in the points table with five wins in the seven matches they have played.
On the other hand, Sharjah Warriors have won three games and lost as many while one of their games ended in a no result. Thus, the Moeen Ali-led team is currently in fourth place in the standings.
Sharjah Warriors had won their previous match against Abu Dhabi Knight Riders by four wickets and they will want to carry the same winning impetus. Meanwhile, Desert Vipers suffered an ignominious loss of 157 runs in their previous match against MI Emirates.
When these two teams had met earlier in the season, Desert Vipers had won by seven wickets and they will be looking to replicate the same performance whereas the Warriors will be seeking their revenge.
With the playoff stages on the cards, both teams will want to be at their absolute best and come up with a collective show.
