We are in the 3rd game of the Legends League Cricket 2023, where the Asia Lions will be up against the World Giants. Both sides have started the tournament on a winning note. Asia Lions defeated the India Maharajas in their first game, while World Giants won a nail-biter against the same opposition.
World Giants will have to score runs in the middle and lower middle order, as it failed miserably in the last game. It is a major weakness in conditions like this. Asia Giant players are used to these conditions, which is an advantage for them. It will be a clash of supremacy, and we expect to see a good contest between legends of the game.
Shahid Afridi's side started the tournament with a win. It was a good show by their batsmen and bowlers against India Maharajas as they rode home to a 9-run win. Afridi will look to ride on this momentum. His opponents also come here with a win, and the Lions skipper would like to see a positive show from his players.
Upul Tharanga played well in the last game and would like to offer a good start alongside Tillakaratne Dilshan. Misbah-ul-Haq played a match-winning knock in the last game, and he needs to build partnerships in the middle order with Misbah-ul-Haq and Afridi. Thisara Perera and Abdul Razzaq will look to do the big-hitting toward the end of the innings.
Sohail Tanvir looks in good form, and he will look to grab early wickets, sharing the new ball with Isuru Udana. Thisara Perera and Afrid are experienced bowlers who like to take advantage of the conditions. Abdul Razzaq and Dilshan add to the side's bowling options in this game.

Aaron Finch's side snatched a win from the jaws of defeat. In an exciting contest against India Maharajas, the side won the game by 2 runs. The middle and lower middle order failed in the last game, and the Giants' skipper will like a better performance from them in this contest.
Finch led from the front in the last game and would like to set up a big-opening wicket partnership with Chris Gayle. Shane Watson played an important knock, but the side will need runs in the middle order from Jacques Kallis and Ross Taylor. Kevin O'Brien and Morne van Wyk must come up with contributions in the lower middle order for the side to win.
Brett Lee bowled brilliantly in the last game and must give early breakthroughs, opening the bowling with Tino Best. Monty Panesar will enjoy bowling on this surface, and he must do well with Ricardo Powell. Gayle, Chris Mpofu, and Kevin O'Brien add to the side's bowling options.

The skies over Doha will be clear on March 13, and we will have hot and humid conditions. It would be a flat surface, and we expect to see a run feast here during the game. The side that bats first would need 180 runs or more on the board to win.
West End Park International Cricket Stadium, Doha, is a great venue for batsmen. The wicket is flat, and the outfield is lightning-fast which allows them to score runs easily. There is nothing on this surface for the fast bowlers who have struggled here. It has been a happy hunting ground for the spinners.
In both games, the side batting first has won. The wicket has shown a tendency to slow down as the game progresses and this will be on the minds of both captains. The side winning the toss should have little hesitation in batting first.
World Giants will be worried about the form of their batsmen in the middle and lower middle order. They didn’t do well in the last game. Asia Lions players are used to these conditions and have an attack suited for this track. It will make them favorites to win in this game.
