The second match of the Abu Dhabi T10 League 2024 will feature the Morrisville Samp Army facing off against the Bangla Tigers on Thursday (November 21) at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.
Reigning champions Morrisville, led by Rohaan Mustafa, will aim to start their title defense on a strong note. Meanwhile, the Tigers led by Bangladesh’s Shakib Al Hasan, who finished fourth in the previous edition, will be eager to improve their performance this season.
The Sheikh Zayed Stadium pitch in Abu Dhabi is well-known for favoring bowlers, and providing support to both spinners and pacers. As the game progresses, the surface gradually slows down, creating added difficulties for batters. This change in pace can disrupt their timing, leading to mistimed shots and reducing scoring opportunities. The wicket’s unpredictability requires batters to continuously adjust, making it challenging to maintain a consistent scoring rate.
