Dubai Capitals & Sharjah Warriorz (Source: Twitter/X and Twitter/X)00
Dubai Capitals (DC) will take on Sharjah Warriorz (SWR) in Match 23 of the DP World ILT20 2025 at the Dubai International Stadium in Dubai on January 28. After losing three consecutive games, Dubai Capitals made a remarkable comeback by winning three games on the trot. This has catapulted their position from bottom of the table to the second position. A win from here will solidify their chance of making it to the playoffs.
On the other hand, Sharjah Warriorz are having a forgettable tournament. They have lost four back-to-back games and are struggling at the last spot in the points table. They have won just two out of seven games and have a worrisome net run rate of -1.337. They are potentially out of the playoffs race but the team would like to draw curtains with some consolation victories.

Pitch Report
The DICS pitch offers great assistance for the batters and the pacers will generate variable bounce. The spinners will get little aid from the deck and they can rely on their lengths to take the pace off the ball and trouble the batters. On the weather front, the skies will be clear with no rain threat during the game.
