Dubai Capitals vs Sharjah Warriors Betting Odds
Sharjah Warriors to have a better opening partnership than Dubai Capitals
David Warner, serving as captain and opening batsman for Dubai Capitals, was unable to find his stead in their previous match against Gulf Giants as he failed to maintain a respectable opening partnership with Rahmanullah Gurbaz. He scored a single run and lost his wicket in 2.2 overs, leading the opening duo to conclude their collaboration with just 15 runs. Sharjah Warriors, on the other hand, achieved a remarkable partnership between their opening pair, Martin Guptill and Johnson Charles. They scored 93 runs together and kept their partnership alive for 10.3 overs when the former’s wicket was taken. Considering the disparity in performance, Sharjah Warriors could establish a better first wicket partnership than Dubai Capitals.
