Desert Vipers Preview
Desert Vipers finished the league stage at the top of the table with seven wins and three losses. However, their momentum took a hit in Qualifier 1, where Dubai Capitals chased down their total of 189-7 to hand them a five-wicket defeat.
With another shot at making the final, the Vipers must regroup quickly. Alex Hales has been their most reliable batter, amassing 353 runs in 11 innings at a strike rate of 135.76. His 67 off 32 balls in the last match was a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing result.
Sam Curran has been consistent as well, scoring 291 runs in ten innings, though at a steadier pace with a strike rate of 121.25.
Daniel Lawrence has played several key innings in the middle order, while Max Holden has impressed with 106 runs in just two games, getting out only once.
The bowling attack has been led by Lockie Ferguson and Mohammad Amir, who have shared 22 wickets and kept the scoring in check. Wanindu Hasaranga, who has snared 11 wickets this season, is a game-changer with the ball, capable of dismantling lineups when in rhythm.
Key Players: Alex Hales, Sam Curran, Lockie Ferguson
DV Over/Under Betting Tips
Hales has been in sublime form throughout the tournament and has scored 353 runs in 11 matches, smashing 3 half centuries. In the two matches he has played at Sharjah, Hales scored 77* and 18 runs. Given his current form, we back him to score over 24 runs in today's match against the Warriors.
Desert Vipers Predicted Playing XI:
Alex Hales, Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Max Holden, Daniel Lawrence, Sam Curran, Sherfane Rutherford, Wanindu Hasaranga, Dhruv Parashar, Lockie Ferguson (c), Khuzaima Tanveer, Mohammad Amir

Sharjah Warriors Preview
Sharjah Warriorz have had an unpredictable run in this ILT20 season, with five wins and five losses in the league stage. However, when they are at their best, they have the ability to dismantle any team. They enter this crucial contest after a dominant performance against MI Emirates in the Eliminator, where they chased down a modest target of 147 with six wickets remaining and seven balls to spare. This win means they have now won four games in a row.
The Warriorz will look to build on that momentum as they take on the Vipers in this do-or-die knockout battle.
Tom Kohler-Cadmore has been the star of their batting unit, accumulating 387 runs across nine innings with an impressive strike rate of 140.21. Johnson Charles has been a steady presence at the top, chipping in with 341 runs while striking at 167.15. He is likely to be substituted with Dilshan Madushanka.
Jason Roy may not have set the season alight, but he is a dangerous presence at the top and could be a difference-maker even if he provides a quick cameo. Tim Seifert showed in the previous game how dangerous he can be with a blazing knock of 40* off 20 balls.
The bowling unit has been well-rounded, with Adam Milne standing out after collecting 12 wickets in 11 games at an economy of 8.10. Captain Tim Southee has provided strong support, taking 10 wickets at 8.60.

Winning Prediction
Desert Vipers and Sharjah Warriorz have both bested the other once this season, but this encounter carries much higher stakes. Both sides have standout players who can change the course of the match on their own. However, the Warriorz are riding a wave of momentum with four straight wins, including a high-pressure Eliminator. In contrast, the Vipers have faltered, losing three of their last four outings. With the Warriorz in better form, they’re our top pick for this must-win showdown.
