ABD vs DUB Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for Today's Emirates D20 Match 24 – Dec 20, 2020

The 24th match of this Emirates D20 2020 tournament sees Abu Dhabi square off against Dubai at the ICC Academy ground in Dubai. Both teams are coming into this game on the back of contrasting displays in their previous games.

Abu Dhabi have been disappointing throughout this tournament so far. They are the only team that are yet to register a win this season. They lost five games in a row before their last two games were abandoned without a ball being bowled.

As a result, the Midhun Pattlikkadan-led side are reeling at the bottom of the table. They need to win their remaining three games in order to stand a chance of making it to the top four.

On the other hand, Dubai have been inconsistent for a large part of this tournament. In seven games, they have won three and lost four. They’ve not had winning or losing sequences but just haven’t been able to build any sort of momentum. However, against a bottom-placed Abu Dhabi side, they may just start as favourites. A win in this game will help them inch closer to sealing a spot in the top four.
