Gulf Cricket T20I tournament is starting from today. There are five team playing this tournament that include United Arab Emirates, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Kuwait.
We have a first match between United Arab Emirates and Bahrain. Talking about the performances it seems that United Arab Emirates will have a upper hand in this tournament. They have won their last 5 matches too. The last time these two teams meet was in T20 World Cup Asia QLF B where UAE won that match by 8 wickets.
After winning the toss, Bahrain decided to bat first. There were not able to have a good start as they lost their 3 wickets on 27 runs only. Both openers Prashant Kurup and Asif Ali failed to give them a start. Only Ahmer Bin Nasir is playing with conviction and he is still batting on 54. Around 2 overs are still left in the game and the even if they try their best they can reach to around 130 score. I don’t think this can be match winning target once we know that wickets in Dubai are batting friendly.
