Match Details:

The 13th match of the Abu Dhabi T10 league will be played between Pune Devils and Bangla Tigers at Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi.

The match is scheduled to start at 4:00 PM local time (5:30 PM IST) and it will be streamed live on Sony Six, Sony Ten 3, Sony Liv, and also on Jio Sports.

Preview:

Pune Devils will face the Bangla Tigers in the Super League contest of the Abu Dhabi T10 league on Monday. Pune Devils finished 4th in Group B with 2 points after winning one and losing 2 matches. After wrapping up a comprehensive victory over Deccan Gladiators in their tournament opener by 7 wickets, Pune Devils then lost back to back matches due to some ordinary bowling.

They need to find the right combination for the Super League stage and back to the winning ways. On the other hand, Bangla Tigers’ story isn’t much different in this competition, they too have won one and lost 2 matches, they finished 3rd in the Group A standings with 2 points. They are coming off a massive loss over Northern Warriors by 30 runs in their final league game. Lack of death bowling options causing the games for them. Both the teams have got plenty of firepower in their batting order and whoever bowls well will emerge out victorious.
