Match Details

The 7th place play-off of the Taipei T10 League 2020 will be played between Taiwan Daredevils and ICCT Smashers at the Yingfeng Cricket Ground in Songshan District.

Preview

The Taipei T10 League is set to end on Sunday with the seventh-place playoff between Taiwan Daredevils and ICCT Smashers. Both the teams will be playing for pride and will want to avoid the ignominy of finishing with the wooden spoon. The Daredevils have won only a solitary game in five outings so far in the tournament. They defeated TCA Indians in the group stage but have lost steam since then.

The Smashers, on the other hand, have faced an even worse fate. They haven’t won even a single game in five attempts and would want to end on a high. Interestingly, these two sides are facing for the first time in the competition and it is expected to be a close encounter.

Weather Conditions

The rain has played spoilsport a lot of times in this tournament thus far and the forecast isn’t encouraging for the final day as well. There is a 36% chance of rain during this match and it is likely to interrupt the proceedings again. The temperature will hover around 31 Degrees Celsius.


Pitch Report

The surface has only improved as the tournament has progressed. Rather it will not be wrong to say that the batsmen have found ways to score runs. Expect the scores around 90-100 in this game as well. The team winning the toss should bat first.

Average first innings score: 90 (Last four completed games at the venue)

Top Picks

Rajesh Mehta showed good form in the previous form scoring 35 runs off 25 deliveries. He opened along with Devang Shah who is the captain option. Devang scored 17 runs and picked up two wickets going for only 10 runs. Mohit Gaur batted well for his 20 runs and also picked a wicket. Among the bowlers, Neel Bhimani (2/33) and Shrey Doshi (1/25) are decent options.

Jeff Black has been the best batsman for the Daredevils without a doubt. He also picks wickets in the two overs he bowls. Apart from him, John Koekemoer is a valuable player given his wicketkeeping skills while George Klopper is also a brilliant all-rounder. Shane Ferriera has been a breath of fresh air for them at the top of the order and he bowls well too.
