Preview by AkshayaKrishna Polya
We are just one game away from knowing who is going to face Desert Vipers in the grand final of the International League T20 (ILT20) Season 4 in Dubai on Sunday. The winner of Qualifier 2 between MI Emirates and Abu Dhabi Knight Riders at Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Friday (January 2) will advance to the final, while the loser will go home.
The 2024 champions, MI Emirates, finished the league phase second on the points table with 14 points from 10 matches, having won seven and lost three. They lost to the table toppers and eventual finalists, Desert Vipers, in Qualifier 1 by 45 runs, but since they finished in the top two, they got the second bite of the cherry.
On the other hand, the Knight Riders finished fourth on the points table, with 8 points from 10 games, having won four and lost six, making it to the playoffs for the first time in the ILT20's history. They put on a show in the Eliminator against defending champions Dubai Capitals to stay alive another day in the tournament.
MIE have already hammered ADKR twice in this competition, but this is a different stage altogether.
Who will go through to the final? To know, join us at 7 PM IST and 5:30 PM Local Time on Friday for its live coverage!
