ILT20 2025: Predicting top 3 player battles for match 11

Abu Dhabi Knight Riders (ADKR) and Mumbai Indians Emirates (MIE) will clash in match 11 of the ILT20 2025 on December 11, 2025, at the Zayed Cricket Stadium, Abu Dhabi.

The ILT20 2025 is not going well for the MI Emirates, as they have played three games, winning one and losing two.  

The Abu Dhabi Knight Riders have participated in three ILT20 2025 games. Regretfully, they have only managed one victory thus far, two defeats, and two points.

Here are the predicted top 3 player battles for match 11 of ILT20 2025:

1. Phil Salt vs Chris Woakes

Phil Salt has made 176 runs at a strike rate of 147.87 in seven games in ILT20, with the best score of 71*. Salt has been one of the most dangerous batters in T20 cricket, scoring more than 7900 runs at a strike rate of 155.85.

Employing his countryman Chris Woakes against him could be a good play. Woakes has taken 18 wickets at an economy of 7.63 in 17 games, with the best bowling figures of 2/11. Woakes has retired from international cricket for England and will give his full attention to ILT20 and knows Phil Salt in and out.

2. Muhammad Waseem vs Jason Holder

Muhammad Waseem has made 935 runs with a strike rate of 139.13 in 36 games, with the best score of 89*. Waseem has done well in T20 cricket not only for the UAE but also for various franchises. Waseem’s penchant for hitting sixes in powerplays has makes him a dangerous player.

Jason Holder has loads of experience dealing with big hitters both in international cricket and franchise T20 cricket. Holder has scored 247 runs at a strike rate of 164.66 in 20 games and taken 27 wickets at an economy of 8.58, with best bowling figures of 4/23. His ability to counter the big hitters with his slower deliveries and subtle pace changes will be a good counter for Waseem’s big hitting.

3. Alex Hales vs Rashid Khan

Alex Hales is the highest run-getter in the ILT20 history. Hales has scored 1241 runs at a strike rate of 144.47 in 38 games, including one century and 10 fifties. A former ICC T20 World Cup winner, Hales had an excellent England career and now is plying his trade in T20 leagues across the world.

Rashid Khan has taken four wickets in four games in ILT20 2025 at an economy of 9.00. However, he has more than 650 wickets in over 500 T20 games, and he knows what it takes to take wickets in the format. He also has the skills to put pressure on opposition batters, and Hales has a weakness against quality spinners.
