Sharjah Warriors vs MI Emirates Betting Tips

MI Emirates to score over 19.5 runs before 1st dismissal

Muhammad Waseem and Will Smeed opened for the team in the first two games of the competition. The duo posted the scores of 7 & 3 runs before one of them lost their wicket. Will Smeed looked particularly out of form and scored 5 & 1 runs in the two games. However, the team made some changes and brought in Kusal Perera in the opening position. Together, Waseem and Perera posted 42 runs for the first wicket. Muhammad Waseem averages 48.00 whereas Perera scored 22 runs in his opening game of the current competition. MI Emirates posted 23 & 36 runs before their first dismissal in their two meetings last season. That said, MI Emirates look well adjusted to the competition and will establish a strong opening partnership in the next game against Sharjah Warriors.

Sharjah Warriors vs MI Emirates Toss Prediction

Sharjah Cricket Stadium is a small ground and perhaps among the highest-scoring ones in the world when it comes to big scores in T20 cricket. The ground is small, and the outfield is lightning-fast. There isn't much for the bowlers where, and both fast bowlers and spinners have struggled so far on this track in this tournament, as there is a small margin of error for them. Most teams that have batted first at this venue have won games. The side winning the toss shouldn't have any hesitation in opting to bat first on this track.

Weather Report

The temperature will remain around 28 degree Celsius on January 26. There is no possibility of rain on game-day. It will be a warm evening in Sharjah, and we expect to see a batting-friendly wicket where fast bowlers would have a tough time.
