The Royal Strikers will be up against Atlas UTC Knights in back-to-back ECS T10 Malta matches at the Marsa Sports Complex in Malta on Thursday.
The Royal Strikers have had a disastrous season so far. They have lost all six of their games and are currently rock-bottom in the Group A points table. The Strikers will head into Thursday's double-header on the back of a 10-wicket loss to the Southern Crusaders. They will be desperate to get off the mark in the ECS T10 Malta when they lock horns with the Knights.
Speaking of the Atlas UTC Knights, they have won five out of their six matches and currently find themselves in second spot in the Group A standings. They defeated defending champions Marsa by nine wickets in their previous game. The Knights are on a three-match winning streak and would like to stretch it to five by picking up wins from both their ECS T10 Malta games against an out-of-form Royal Strikers side.
