Probable Top Performers from DCP vs GG
Probable Best Batter: Pathum Nissanka
Gulf Giants’ Pathum Nissanka could be the best batter in the upcoming game against the Dubai Capitals. Coming off a match-winning 81-run knock, the Sri Lankan can do similar damage in the next match and hand his team their second win of the season.
Probable Best Bowler: Waqar Salamkheil
Waqar Salamkheil’s two-wicket haul against Desert Vipers went in vain after his team lost their opening match. While Salamkheil leaked over 18 runs, he picked two crucial wickets to get his team back in the contest. However, he will look to bowl with the same intensity in the upcoming game and add more wickets to his tally.
