Abu Dhabi Knight Riders vs Gulf Giants Chance of Winning
The Abu Dhabi Knight Riders are fifth in the table knowing that only two wins in their final two games will take them through to the playoff stages. They have lost their last two games and need to do what they have not achieved so far this season - win two games in a row - to qualify. Their penultimate game of the group stage sees them face bottom placed Gulf Giants.
The Giants are virtually out of the tournament and will not only have to win their final game by a huge margin but also hope that results from the other matches go their way. When they look back on their season, they’ll rue their start of the tournament when they won just once in their first five games.

Abu Dhabi Knight Riders vs Gulf Giants Prediction & Betting Tips 2024
Abu Dhabi is a high-scoring venue with scores of over 160 seen at the venue 9 times in 8 games this season. The Zayed Cricket Stadium has also seen teams score over 200 thrice so far with all three scores coming in the last two games. It is expected to be a high-scoring match once again and hence we are expecting over 325 runs to be scored in the match.
While it is a high-scoring venue, we are predicting fewer than 14.5 sixes to be hit on the match. You can get in on the action at odds of 1.80 on Batery. The venue has seen a total of 108 sixes in eight matches, an average of just over 13. We are expecting more fours than sixes and hence, feel the odds on Batery are well worth considering.

Abu Dhabi Knight Riders vs Gulf Giants Betting Odds
Abu Dhabi Knight Riders’ openers to outscore the visiting opening pair
The Gulf Giants’ opening pair have been the outright worst openers in the league this season. They average just over 17 runs per match before losing their first wicket. The Knight Riders fare better with an average of 25 runs on the scoreboard before the opening stand gets broken. With it being a do-or-die match for the hosts, we are expecting them to shine at home and give the rest of the team a good platform to build on.

Abu Dhabi Knight Riders vs Gulf Giants Top Batters
Kyle Mayers to be Abu Dhabi Knight Riders’ top batsman
The change in form for Knight Riders’ West Indies batter Kyle Mayers could very well be what takes them through to the playoff stages. The 32-year-old scored his first fifty of the season in the last game to take his tally to 187 runs for the season. He will need to continue this form if the hosts are to win their last two games.
James Vince to be Gulf Giants’ top batsman
Team captain James Vince scored his best knock of the season in the last game, scoring 86 runs against MI Emirates. Unfortunately for the Englishman, the rest of the batters failed as they pushed themselves one step closer to elimination. We are expecting Vince to go big one last time before bidding adieu to the tournament.
Abu Dhabi Knight Riders vs Gulf Giants Top Bowlers
Jason Holder to be Abu Dhabi Knight Riders’ top bowler
West Indian pacer Jason Holder has been head and shoulders above his teammates in the bowling department. While he has taken 15 wickets in 8 games, none of the other Knight Riders bowlers have managed more than 6 dismissals. We are backing him to be among the wickets when the bottom-placed team comes visiting.
Blessing Muzarabani to be Gulf Giants’ top bowler
Zimbabwean Blessing Muzarabani took 2 wickets the last time the two sides met and we’re expecting him to match that tally at the very least. The medium pacer is tied with Holder as the third-most prolific bowler this season and we’re backing him to go toe-to-toe with the West Indian in Abu Dhabi.
