Virender Sehwag Anticipates Thrilling ILT20 Qualifier 2
As the ILT20 Season 3 heats up, former cricket star and commentator Virender Sehwag is eagerly looking forward to the Qualifier 2 match between Sharjah Warriorz and Desert Vipers. The stakes are high, as the winner will face Dubai Capitals in the final at the Dubai International Stadium on February 9.
UAE Venues: A Batting Paradise
Sehwag, who has had limited but memorable experiences playing in the UAE, praised the batting conditions at local venues. “UAE stadiums have some of the best batting tracks. Though I didn’t have the opportunity to play a lot here, I absolutely enjoyed batting in Dubai, Sharjah, and Abu Dhabi,” he remarked.
Excitement for Upcoming Matches
He expressed confidence in the upcoming matches, stating, “Hopefully the next two games will be a cracker. The match between Dubai Capitals and Desert Vipers went down to the last ball, and I am sure the next two games will be thrilling contests too.”
ILT20: A Developmental Platform
Discussing the progress of the ILT20, Sehwag noted, “I think the ILT20 is one of the best leagues. Like IPL is good for the development of Indian cricket, similarly, ILT20 is beneficial for UAE players and the Middle East.” He emphasized the unique aspect of the league, where teams can field up to nine international players, enhancing the competition and experience for local youngsters.
Desire for Indian Participation
Sehwag expressed his wish to see more Indian players in the league. He mentioned players like Dinesh Karthik and expressed a particular desire to see Yuvraj Singh, stating, “If any Indian player who has just retired from International cricket or IPL wants to play, it would be great.”
