Abu Dhabi Knight Riders (ADKR) and Dubai Capitals (DCP) are poised to face off in the 13th match of the ongoing International League T20 (ILT20 2025-26) at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Saturday, December 13. Notably, this will be the second time these two teams will be up against each other this season, with the last contest being won by the Capitals.

The Jason Holder-led Knight Riders have had an underwhelming season so far after four games. They started the season with a win over Sharjah Warriorz, but ever since then, they have been on a three-match losing streak. They currently find themselves in fifth spot in the points table with two points and a negative NRR of 1.383.

On the other hand, Dasun Shanaka-led Capitals have played three games and have registered one win and two losses. The team will be coming off a win after starting their campaign with back-to-back losses.

The surface at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium is expected to be a bit sluggish. Pacers could have some assistance when the ball is new. Dew could come into play as the game goes on, and that is why the captain who wins the toss would want to bowl first.

Shayan Jahangir(w), Sediqullah Atal, David Willey, Jordan Cox, Rovman Powell, Dasun Shanaka(c), Toby Albert, Haider Ali, Waqar Salamkheil, Mustafizur Rahman, Muhammad Jawadullah

Dubai Capitals batter Rovman Powell is expected to showcase his batting brilliance in the forthcoming game. The hard-hitting batter has so far scored 135 runs in three games at an average of 67.50 and a strike rate of 177.63. His performance with the bat will be crucial for the Dubai-based team.

Waqar Salamkheil could be the best bowler in the forthcoming clash between Abu Dhabi Knight Riders and Dubai Capitals. The left-arm spinner is currently third on the list of leading wicket-takers, having picked up seven wickets from three games at an economy rate of 8.00. He is coming off a match-winning performance, finishing with excellent figures of 4/29 in the Capitals' previous clash against the same opposition.
