MI Emirates vs Desert Vipers Expert Prediction

Desert Vipers have set the standard throughout the competition and don’t look like stopping anytime soon. They responded to their first defeat by winning their next two games by ten wickets and eight wickets respectively, underlining the sheet dominance that we’ve seen from the Vipers over the course of this year’s tournament.

MI Emirates meanwhile, had made a decent start but have taken a couple of significant steps backwards recently with defeat in their last two fixtures against Abu Dhabi Knight Riders and Gulf Giants respectively. Desert Vipers are expected to be the third consecutive opponent who gets the better of them here in Abu Dhabi.
