Pre-Match Analysis:
United Arab Emirates ended up as the runners in the inaugural ACC Men’s Premier Cup last year after losing to Nepal in the finals by 7 wickets. It’s a different ball game altogether as the upcoming edition will be played in the T20 format. They have named a formidable 14-member squad with dashing opening batter Waseem Muhammad will take the reins of the side. Syed Haider Wasi Shah and Muhammad Momand Farooq are the fresh faces in the squad. Vishnu Sukumaran who has 2 ODIs experience gets his maiden T20I call-up. However, there is no place for Aryan Lakra, Rahul Chopra, Zuhaib Zubair, Nilansh Keswami, Vriitya Aravind, and Ashwanth Valthapa who were part of the 2-1 bilateral T20I series loss to Scotland last month. They are the top-ranked side in the ICC T20I Rankings among the other 9 participating teams.
Kuwait are taking baby steps at the highest level and recently finished 3rd in the Malaysia Open T20 Championship. They are getting better every year and are placed 26th in the ICC T20I Rankings. The team looks in good shape and are feeling confident of doing well in the upcoming competition. Mohammad Aslam will lead the troops that include highly talented names such as Ravija Sandaruwan, Clinto Velookkara Anto, and Shiran Khan Shereef. They are heading into this match as underdogs with a 1-5 win-loss record against UAE in the previous 6 meetings.
