Desert Vipers vs Sharjah Warriorz, 22nd Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Sam Curran: We were actually going to have a bowl. Looks a really good wicket.

Sikandar Raza: We are going to have a bat first. I don't think the wickets are as we thought they would be, we also want to break the stereotype. If you dwell on the past then the future will be bleak, it was a good wake up call last night. We have lost three Sri Lankans. DK comes in. We will see who will be the impact sub.. 180+ would be a good start.

17:30 Local Time, 13:30 GMT, 19:00 IST: Hello and welcome to the second game of the day. It’s Desert Vipers vs Sharjah Warriorz, two teams sitting at opposite ends of the points table. The Vipers are top, the only side to have already sealed a playoff berth, while the Warriorz are at the bottom - still alive, but hanging on. The Vipers began the tournament in relentless fashion with six straight wins, but their unbeaten run was snapped by the Knight Riders in their previous outing. They’ll be eager to bounce back and regain momentum heading into the business end. The Warriorz, meanwhile, recovered from three early losses with a couple of wins, only to slip up again in their last match. They desperately need this one to stay in the playoff hunt. So both teams are chasing a win - the Vipers for momentum, the Warriorz for survival. Can the underdogs topple the table-toppers? Toss and team news coming up..
