CAN vs UAE T20 World Cup key match

Mohammad Wasim VS Dilpreet Bajwa

UAE captain Mohammad Wasim is the most trusted batsman in the UAE team. He is the true veteran who has amassed the most runs for the team and Canada will have to dismiss him early in the innings. Canada captain Dilpreet Bajwa is an amazing all-rounder who is also efficient with the ball in the power play.

Harshit Kaushik VS Ansh Patel

Harshit Kaushik is one of the middle-order batsmen in the Emirates team and one of the most in-form run-getters in the team’s line-up. Ansh Patel was included in the lineup to control the midfield. He won’t get much help on the Delhi circuit; however, he can be effective against UAE middle-order batsman Harshit Kaushik, who has positioned himself in the overs after the powerplay.

Dilpreet Bajwa VS Junaid Siddiq

Dilpreet Bajwa is Canada’s main batsman and their important scorer. When he fumbled in the first game against South Africa, Canada scored very little. UAE pacer Junaid Siddique is their top wicket-taker and he can perform well in the new-ball powerplay. He could sack Canada’s captain and put the UAE in front.

Navneet Dhaliwal VS Dhruv Parashar

Navneet Dhaliwal, the middle-order batsman, is their best batsman heading into the tournament. Dhaliwal was the top batsman against South Africa and is expected to bat with the bat against UAE as well. Dhruv Parashar, the young off-spinner, can put the brakes on right-handed batsmen. Parashar could give them the break they need.

CAN vs UAE T20 World Cup Match Weather and Pitch Report – Chennai

Canada vs UAE: Delhi weather forecast

The temperature in Delhi can be moderate during this time of the year. While temperatures can soar during the day, they gradually drop to 15-16 degrees Celsius as the sun sets. Clouds may cover the stadium with less chance of precipitation; however, the dew factor will come into play at inland stadiums.

Canada vs UAE: Arun Jaitley Stadium pitch report

Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium is one of the smallest stadiums in India and is famous for its batting-friendly track. The stadium also has a very fast outfield with an average score of about 180 or more in the first innings. The pitch offers some help to spinners who master pitch drift; however, ill-timed shots often result in the ball going over the boundary rope.

Canada VS UAE head-to-head record

Canada and the UAE have never faced each other in the shortest format of the World Cup; however, they have faced each other once in the 2019 ICC T20 World Cup qualifiers, with the UAE winning.

CAN vs UAE T20 World Cup Match- Conclusion

Either of these two teams may not make it to the next stage of the competition as teams like Canada and UAE may be eliminated after being placed in the same group with the three high-ranked T20I teams of South Africa, New Zealand and Afghanistan.
