DR vs FO Match Prediction & Betting Tips - Dec 09, 2019

Two teams that have got off to a good start in the Qatar T10 League are going to be taking on each other in this next match. Desert Riders and Flying Oryx have both won their opening match of the season and will be looking to build on those gains.

The first couple of games showed that the players are still getting used to the conditions and the average par-scores may start to rise a bit in the upcoming matches. Mohammad Hafeez is going to be headlining this match as one of the major Pakistani players to have come over the Qatar T10 League.

Desert Riders vs Flying Oryx Qatar T10 League is going to be played at the West End Park International Cricket Stadium, Doha on the 9th of December 2019.

DR vs FO Team Previews

Desert Riders

The Desert Riders won their previous match while chasing and continued the trend that has been seen in T10 cricket so far. It appears that the teams batting second have a significant advantage since they can pace their innings better.

Set 94 to win, the Desert Riders lost Mohammad Hafeez early but some very good knocks from Adnan Mirza and Muhammad Tanveer ensured that the chase was never in any doubt. Tanveer top-scored with 49 from just 21 balls and cleared the boundary four times.

The Desert Riders also have Sohail Tanvir in their ranks down the order who has emerged as a very promising all-rounder in the shorter formats of the game. Mohammad Hafeez is too good a player to be missing out consistently in the Qatar T10 League and so it looks like the Desert Riders are heading in the right direction.

Sohail Tanvir, Mohammad Hafeez, and Ajay Lalcheta are the players that will be leading the bowling attack for the Desert Riders.

Desert Riders Playing 11

Mohammad Hafeez, Adnan Mirza, Muhammad Tanveer, Imal Liyanange, S Tanvir, Mujeeb Khan, Sibtul Hasnain Baig Mirza, Ajay Lalcheta, Awais Malik, Muhammad Ikram, Himanshu Rathod.


Flying Oryx

Flying Oryx brushed aside the Pear Gladiators in their opening match and won the match while chasing down 84 with ease. We have seen in previous T10 matches that 100 is about the par-score that teams must aim for while batting first. Anything less than that and the team chasing must be favored heavily.

The advantage of chasing in this format is also quite clear.

Flying Oryx was propelled by a strong batting performance from Hussain Talat, their captain, who scored 59 not out from just 29 deliveries. He was helped by Assad Borham who opened the batting and the performance of the bowlers as well.

Bilawal Iqbal actually bowled a maiden in T10 cricket and gave away just four runs in his two overs. That is just incredible and quite possibly a match-defining performance. Hussain Talat contributed with the ball as well and is going to play a central role for Flying Oryz moving forward as well.

Flying Oryx does not have the same kind of international talent that is present in their opponents' team, though, and we fear they may have started against a particularly weak side, which has made Flying Oryx look better than they actually are.

Flying Oryx Playing 11

Assad Borham, Valeed Veetil, Hussain Talat, Aziz Rashid, Harmandeep Singh, Daniyal Bukhari, Akash, Deepu, Bilawal Iqbal, Musawir Khan, Naved Malik.

Pitch and Conditions

The weather is not going to be a concern in Doha as the weather forecast for the entire tournament is very good. The pitch seems to be a bit on the slower side and is hampering the big hits but we are hopeful of seeing bigger scores as the batsmen get used to the conditions.
