On Monday (December 2), the Qualifier 2 of Abu Dhabi T10 League 2024 will witness Morrisville Samp Army facing off against Delhi Bulls at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.

Morrisville Samp Army’s journey

Led by Rohan Mustafa, Morrisville Samp Army secured the second position on the points table at the conclusion of the league stage. Despite their strong performance, they faced a tough challenge against the table-toppers, Deccan Gladiators, in Qualifier 1. Unfortunately, the Samp Army suffered a heavy defeat, losing by 45 runs. However, thanks to their 2nd-place finish, they earned a second shot at reaching the final by competing in Qualifier 2.

Delhi Bulls’ grit and resilience

Under the captaincy of Rovman Powell, the Delhi Bulls concluded the league stage in fifth position, leaving them with a daunting path to the final. To qualify, they needed to win three consecutive knockout matches. So far, the Bulls have risen to the challenge with remarkable performances. On Sunday, December 1, they defeated UP Nawabs by 8 wickets in Eliminator 1. Later that day, they carried their momentum into Eliminator 2, overcoming Team Abu Dhabi with a convincing 42-run victory.

With one final hurdle to cross, both teams are determined to secure their spot in the Abu Dhabi T10 2024 final against the Deccan Gladiators, promising an exciting clash between two resilient sides.

Sheikh Zayed Stadium Pitch Report:

The pitch at Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi is renowned for being bowler-friendly, offering significant assistance to both pacers and spinners. As the match unfolds, the surface tends to slow down, making it increasingly challenging for batters to score freely. This shift in pace often disrupts their timing, resulting in mistimed shots and restricted scoring opportunities. The wicket’s unpredictable behaviour requires batters to adapt swiftly, posing a stern test of their ability to maintain a steady scoring rate throughout the game.
