Desert Vipers vs MI Emirates Prediction & Betting Tips 2024
The Dubai International Cricket Stadium has been more favourable to bowlers in the initial three games. The venue has seen a total of 42 dismissals with scores above 140 seen in just one game. We are backing odds of over 1.88 on Parimatch for more than 13.5 wickets to fall in the match.
With the way the pitch has behaved, we are backing the tournament’s leading wicket-taker, Fazalhaq Farooqui, to help himself to a few wickets. The Afghanistan pacer returned with figures of 5/16 in the only match he has played in Dubai.

Desert Vipers vs MI Emirates Match Toss Prediction
Out of the three matches played in Dubai, teams batting second have won on two occasions. The only team to fail to successfully chase the target down at the venue was MI Emirates in the opening when they fell short by a solitary run. We expect the captain that wins the toss to bowl first and know the target to chase.
Weather Report
The mercury is set to stay in the early 20s during the match hours. While there is no rain expected, the wind is expected to pick up speed as the match progresses.

Desert Vipers vs MI Emirates Betting Odds
Desert Vipers to get the better off MI Emirates in the powerplay overs
The MI Emirates have lost six wickets in the powerplay in just two matches so far this season. The opening match saw them lose four wickets and put up just 34 runs on the board. They performed better in the second game, but still lost two batters. While the Vipers have been more conservative with their approach with the bat, they have lost just three wickets under field restrictions. They will look to capitalise on the defending champions’ knack to lose wickets in the initial overs.

Desert Vipers vs MI Emirates Top Batters
Fakhar Zaman to be Desert Vipers’ top batsman
The Vipers’ opening batsman is yet to get going in the tournament, having scored 7 and 23 in two games. In the last match, Fakhar Zaman started well, hitting a six and finding the boundary thrice before getting out. He has shown glimpses of his talent and it is only a matter of time before he punishes the opposition.
Nicholas Pooran to be MI Emirates’ top batsman
The team captain has scored fifties in both the matches that the team has played this season to emerge as his team’s leading run scorer. He started the campaign with a knock of 61 runs in an unsuccessful chase against the Dubai Capitals before scoring 59 against the same opponent two days later.
Desert Vipers vs MI Emirates Top Bowlers
Lockie Ferguson to be Desert Vipers’ top bowler
Fresh off his exploits in the Big Bash League, Lockie Ferguson joined the Desert Vipers camp just in time to play their opening games. He has taken 4 wickets in two matches with three of them coming in Dubai, the venue of the match against the Emirates.
Fazalhaq Farooqi to be MI Emirates’ top bowler
The tournament’s top wicket-taker has to be everyone’s pick to be the best bowler in the match, not just for his own team. In just two matches, Fazalhaq Farooqui has taken 7 wickets, including a 5-wicket haul in the season opener in Dubai.
