ILT20 2025: Predicting Sharjah Warriors XI for match 2

Sharjah Warriorz will take on the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders in the second match of the ILT20 2025 on Wednesday, December 3, at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium in Sharjah. The Warriorz won and lost five matches each last season and finished in fourth place. They lost the second qualifier against the Desert Vipers. The team decided to retain Johnson Charles, Tom Kohler-Cadmore, and Tim Southee before the auction. Sikandar Raza, Maheesh Theekshana, Saurabh Netravalkar, Tim David, and Dinesh Karthik are the five players who were pre-signed by the franchise before the auction. The Warriorz used the RTM card for Muhammad Rohid, and he was the most expensive player for the team in the auction.

Let’s look at the probable playing XI of the Sharjah Warriorz for Match 2 of the ILT20 2025 against the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders:

Top Order:  

Tom Kohler-Cadmore, Johnson Charles, and Tim David will likely be a part of the top order in the playing 11. Kohler-Cadmore and Johnson were two of the top run-scorers for the team last season and made 388 runs and 357 runs, respectively.

Middle Order:  

Tom Abell and Dinesh Karthik are likely to be there in the middle order. Abell last played in the tournament during the 2023-24 season. Karthik will make his ILT20 debut this season.

Lower Middle Order:  

Sikandar Raza and Dwaine Pretorius are likely to be in the lower middle-order. Raza played for the Dubai Capitals last season, while Pretorius will make his ILT20 debut this year.

Bowlers:  

Tim Southee, Adil Rashid, Junaid Siddique, and Saurabh Netravalkar could be the four bowlers for the team. Southee was the second-highest wicket-taker for the tournament last season and took 10 wickets in 12 matches at an average of 37.70.
