We expect Arabian Aces to win the toss and bat first. Both night games here this week went to the side batting first, Yas Lions defending 132 and Emirates Eagles defending 137, so setting a target looks like the safer play. No dew or pitch details were supplied, and heavy dew is the one thing that could flip that thinking.
No official pitch report was available when this was written, so the scorecards do the talking. Yas Lions made 132/5 and held ARA to 103/7 on November 11. The night before, EME made 137/7 and UAE Bulls ended on 112/7. Totals in the low-to-mid 130s have been enough, which makes the 140+ forecast for ARA a stretch and the 130+ for EME safer. Check the pitch report at the toss.
No temperature or dew figures were supplied, and we would rather say so than guess. Both recent games were night fixtures, and dew is the thing to watch in this weather report. If it arrives, the ball comes onto the bat and chasing gets easier, which would break the pattern of sides defending totals. Look for an update at the toss.
Moeen Ali leads a side coming off a 29-run loss to Yas Lions on November 11. ARA finished 103/7 chasing 133, the sort of night that makes batting first look attractive, and Moeen will push for exactly that at the toss.
Paul Walter is the listed key batter, and Liam Livingstone is our pick for top score, most sixes and Player of the Match. The squad also lists Sam Billings, Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Quentin Sampson. We project 140+, which needs a quick start from somebody.
Richard Gleeson is the key bowler and Andre Russell the key all-rounder. Alzarri Joseph is our pick as top wicket-taker, with Imran Tahir, Dunith Wellalage and Dwaine Pretorius also available.

Rovman Powell captains a team that beat UAE Bulls by 25 runs on November 10, defending 137/7 after Bulls finished 112/7. Defending is a handy habit in ten overs, and Powell now has a recent example to point to.
Shimron Hetmyer is the key batter, and his 76 won him Player of the Match against Bulls. He is also our pick for top score and most sixes. Alex Hales, Kusal Perera and Srikar Bharat are in the squad as well, and we project 130+.
Haider Razzaq is the key bowler and Kyle Mayers the listed key all-rounder. Trent Boult is our pick as top wicket-taker, and Noor Ahmad, Chris Green, Rehan Ahmed and David Wiese give Powell options.

Our final call is Arabian Aces at 55%, with Emirates Eagles on 45%, mainly because ARA won the November 9 meeting and Livingstone is our pick to swing it. Hetmyer’s 76 shows EME can win through one big innings, though. Does Livingstone out-hit him? Follow JeetBuzz for more updates, stats and analysis before every Abu Dhabi T10 match.
