T20 WC: Hunting For First Win, Canada And UAE Clash With Backs Against The Wall (preview)
ICC T20 World Cup: When Canada and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) take the field at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Friday afternoon, the aim for both sides will be very simple -- get a win under their belt. Both teams find themselves winless in Group D, and a win will help them get off the mark in the points table.
Canada, smarting from a 57-run hammering at the hands of South Africa, occupies the bottom spot with a net run rate of -2.850. UAE, despite a spirited batting display against New Zealand that yielded their highest-ever T20 World Cup total of 173, sits one rung above them at -2.763 after the Blackcaps cantered to a 10-wicket victory.
Canada’s baptism by fire against South Africa laid bare the chasm between them and the Proteas. Their pacers returned wicketless with an overall economy rate of 11.1 in Ahmedabad. In contrast, the spinners offered some respectability, with left-arm wrist-spinner Ansh Patel, who previously played for Baroda in the Indian domestic cricket ecosystem, emerging as the solitary bright spot by picking three wickets.
