It is the start of the fourth season of the Abu Dhabi T10 league. In the second match on the first day of the tournament, Pune Devils will square off against Deccan Gladiators at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.
Pune Devils, who were previously known as the Karnataka Tuskers, made their Abu Dhabi T10 league debut last season but didn’t have the best of campaigns. They could muster only one win from six games to finish at the bottom of both Group A and the Super League of the Abu Dhabi T10 league.
However, with star players like Sam Billings, Mohammad Amir, Thisara Perera and Hardus Viljoen in their ranks this time, they would hope for a better campaign in the Abu Dhabi T10 league.
Meanwhile, Deccan Gladiators were the runner-up in the Abu Dhabi T10 league last season. They registered five wins in the Abu Dhabi T10 tournament before going down to Maratha Arabians in the final.
Deccan Gladiators, who boast of stars like Kieron Pollard, Imran Tahir, Sunil Narine and Colin Ingram, will hope to go one step further in the Abu Dhabi T10 league this time around and win the tournament.

Pitch Report
The track at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi is expected to be a good one to bat on. The ball could come on to the bat nicely, helping the batters to play shots on the up. There might be some turn for the spinners though.
110 runs could be a par score on this track, and the team winning the toss might look to chase.
