GG vs SWR, ILT20 2025 Preview

Gulf Giants finished second on the ILT20 points table behind eventual winners MI Emirates last year. However, the Giants had their juggernaut halted by the Dubai Capitals in the second qualifier. Set to be led by explosive English batter James Vince, the current Gulf Giants line-up comprises of the likes of several international stars like Tom Curran, Ibrahim Zadran, Gerhard Erasmus, Tymal Mills, Chris Jordan and blistering West Indies middle order batter Shimron Hetmyer.

The Sharjah Warriorz, on the other hand, finished the ILT20 2024 season at the bottom of the six-team points table for securing just four wins and coping six defeats from 10 league matches. Hoping for an improved performance this time around, the Tim Southee-led Warriorz team is glittered with the presence of Johnson Charles, Jason Roy, Adil Rashid, Tim Seifert, Bhanuka Rajapaksa as well as rising English star Gus Atkinson. BBL bound players like Matthew Wade, Daniel Sams and Ashton Agar are also expected to join the group within the coming weeks.
