The winner of this match will take on Dubai Capitals in the final on Sunday, 9th February to be played at the Dubai International Stadium.<br \/>\nEmphasising on the wickets here in UAE that are tailor-made for scoring big runs, Sehwag said, \u201cUAE stadiums have some of the best batting tracks. Though I didn\u2019t have the opportunity to play a lot here, I did play a couple of games for India and during the Indian Premier League (IPL) and I absolutely enjoyed batting here in Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cHopefully the next two games (Qualifier 2 and Final) 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 contest too.\u201d<br \/>\nHaving been part of the DP World ILT20 as a commentator since its inception, Sehwag highlighted the growth of this league and factors that makes it one of the top cricket leagues in the world. \u201cI think the DP World ILT20 is one of the best leagues. Like IPL is good for the development of Indian cricket, similarly, DP World ILT20 is good for UAE players and the Middle East. But the good part is that you can\u2019t see nine international players playing in one team in any other league.\u201d<br \/>\nHe further added, \u201cThis is the third year for me in DP World ILT20 as a commentator. And I\u2019m seeing that a lot of good international players are coming and playing this league, which is benefitting UAE\u2019s youngsters. They\u2019re getting good experience with international players. And this year, if you look at all the matches, they have been very close and very interesting and there were a lot of games that saw 200-plus runs being scored too.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dubai On the eve of Qualifier 2 at the DP World ILT20 Season 3, batting legend and commentator Virender Sehwag vouched to witness thrilling contest between Sharjah Warriorz and Desert Vipers, at the iconic Sharjah Cricket Stadium.
