With perhaps the best roster in the tournament, the Gladiators haven't disappointed and will be keen to seal their place in the knockouts.

With both teams looking in decent form, a cracking game beckons on Sunday.

Pitch Report

As seen in this tournament, another high-scoring game beckons at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium. The batters will rule the roost despite their being movement on offer for the bowlers. Although there should be some turn available off the surface for the spinners as well, the dimensions of the ground go against them. Both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss with dew likely to play a role in the second half of the game.

Today’s NW vs DG Dream11 match top picks

Wicketkeeper

Kennar Lewis: Kennar Lewis has been in fine form at the top of the Northern Warriors batting unit with his explosive batting ability. Lewis comes into the game on the back of a 32-ball 65 and will be keen to sustain the same form against the Gladiators as well.

Batter

Tom Banton: Tom Banton has blown hot and cold in this series despite his undeniable talent. He has a decent record in this format and given his skill against both pace and spin, Banton is a must-have in your NW vs DG Dream11 fantasy team.

All-rounder

Moeen Ali: Moeen Ali was the star of the show for the Northern Warriors in their win over Team Abu Dhabi as they chased down 145 with five balls to spare. The southpaw has been in fine form with the bat in hand and should be a popular pick in today's NW vs DG Dream11 contests.

Bowler

Wahab Riaz: Although Wahab Riaz has been decent with the ball in the tournament, he hasn't picked up many wickets to show for his efforts. He is one of the best exponents of the yorker and should pick up a wicket or two for the Deccan Gladiators.
