Pitch Report
The Sheikh Zayed Stadium wicket for T10 games has shown a slight advantage to early pacers, thanks to some initial seam movement and pace.
- Early overs: Good for pace-bowlers — the seamers get some assistance with new ball.
- As overs progress: Pitch tends to flatten and favors batters — ideal for aggressive stroke play in middle and death overs.
- Typical T10 scores at the venue: First-innings average around 100–110.
Fantasy Takeaway: Top-order batters and strike-rate hitters gain value. Also pick one or two strike-pacers who can pick early wickets, and a power-hitter or finisher who can exploit the death overs.
Royal Champs (RC) – Team Preview
Royal Champs have invested in aggressive batters and all-round talent to thrive in the quick T10 format. Their strength lies in strike power and death-over bowling options, which suits the short game perfectly.
Probable Playing 11 – Royal Champs (RC)

- Explosive batting potential — good chance to post 110+
- Pace-heavy bowling attack, which can exploit early overs at Abu Dhabi

Aspin Stallions (AS) – Team Preview
Aspin Stallions, a relatively new or restructured franchise in 2025 edition, bring a mix of hitters, all-rounders and versatile players. They might rely on finishing power and flexible bowling combinations to stay competitive.
Probable Playing 11 – Aspin Stallions (AS)

- Slip in fast or medium-pace bowlers for early wickets

Head-to-Head & Recent Form
- Venue history shows chasing teams at Sheikh Zayed have had a slight edge in T10 games.
- Average first-innings total around 100–110 suggests batting-first targets are moderate — gives chasing teams a manageable total to chase.
- Given both teams’ balanced composition, match outcome will likely depend on execution in powerplay and death overs rather than history or form.
Top Fantasy Picks
Batters / Hitters
- RC aggressive opener — Big upside due to early powerplay overs + small boundaries.
- AS top-order hitter — If he gets going, T10 offers high strike rate and maximum-hitting potential.
- Middle-over finisher (RC / AS) — Valuable for quick 20–30 runs in death overs.
All-Rounders / Utility Picks
- RC all-rounder — Offers both bat and ball value, ideal for T10 balance.

Bowlers (Especially Pacers / Strike-bowlers)

Captain & Vice-Captain Picks
Best Captain Choices
- RC aggressive opener — High strike rate and chance of 30–40 runs in 10 overs.

Best Vice-Captain Choices
- Strike pacer from RC or AS — Wicket + economy + dot balls combination favorable.
- Middle-order finisher / utility player — Useful in tight T10 games for finishing runs + possible catches or bowling overs.
For Grand League (GL) — consider differential picks like lesser-picked all-rounders or bowlers from Aspin Stallions for upside.
Dream11 Team Strategy
Small League (SL) Strategy
- Core setup: 1 aggressive batter (RC), 1 reliable all-rounder, 1 strike pacer, 1 finisher.

- Lean towards bat + pace combination — exploit pitch and short format.
