For the final league fixture of the ILT20 2025 season, Dubai Capitals will be up against Desert Vipers. The clash will be held at Sharjah Cricket Stadium on February 3 starting at 7.30 PM IST.
Dubai Capitals
Dubai Capitals, with five wins, have shown flashes of brilliance but have struggled with consistency. However, David Warner’s return has turned the tide for them as he slammed a magnificent 93 in the previous game against Abu Dhabi Knight Riders.
Moreover, with the victory against ADKR, the Capitals secured their place in the playoffs. However, to finish much higher in the points table, the Capitals must win the upcoming game and wrap up the league stage with confidence.
Desert Vipers
Topping the points table with 4 wins and 14 points, the Desert Vipers are in stellar form. With a playoff spot already secured, captain Lockie Ferguson will be eager to rally his team and regain momentum. Key players like Fakhar Zaman and Alex Hales, who have been in fine form, will be crucial in setting a solid foundation at the top of the order.
The middle order, featuring Daniel Lawrence, Sam Curran, and Azam Khan, remains a formidable force. The bowling attack, which faltered in the last match, will need a much stronger performance. Ferguson will hope to lead from the front alongside Sam Curran.
