The Asia Cup Qualifiers 2022 began a week before the main tournament where five teams are already waiting. Yesterday was Match 1 where Hong Kong beat Singapore and today, we’re moving on to Match 2 of the 2022 Asia Cup Qualifier. United Arab Emirates is in action today and they’re hosting the main draw of Asia Cup 2022, so they’d love to be able to go out there and win in order to qualify to that event.
They’re clear favourites because they’re playing against Kuwait that doesn’t have nearly as much as international exposure and experience that UAE has had, neither have they played in major global events in the past. However, UAE has lacked consistency over the years and a shock defeat is not impossible in this game. Keep reading for our complete MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) UAE vs KUW fantasy preview…

United Arab Emirates
Ahmed Raza was sacked as captain just before Asia Cup 2022 so we’re not even sure if this spinner will make the playing XI, so we’re leaving him out of our UAE vs KUW fantasy team today. Instead, pick new captain Chundangapoyil Rizwan who has 7 consecutive double-digit scores at the international level, including two fifties. With 3 fifties and a century in just 7 games here at an average of 50+, Muhammad Waseem is also a must have.
Often considered as one of the best al-rounders in the associate level game, Rohan Mustafa is a friend of Read Scoops and he’s the top wicket-taker for UAE here along with having 2 fifties in 9 games with the bat, so he makes our UAE vs KUW Dream11 team too. With the ball, Zahoor Khan has the variations that are best suited for the T20 format and he even got a 4-fer against Scotland earlier this month, so is in good rhythm.
Kuwait
With three 30+ scores in his last five T20Is for Kuwait and not a single one being a single-digit score, Ravija Sandaruwan is in prime form and can be a real game-changer with the bat, so there’s no way we’re leaving him out today as he’s also got 300+ runs in 10 T20Is here. If we’re looking at another option with the bat, there’s the 18-year old wicket-keeper Meet Bhavsar who opens the innings and has two successive fifties coming into this game.

Mohammed Aslam is appointed to lead the side and he’s a regular wicket-keeper while also being able to stitch together a partnership if in case there’s an early collapse. He has 9 wickets in 8 games here, so makes our MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) UAE vs KUW fantasy team and we’d also like to include Sayed Monib who has an equal number of wickets in only 6 games here. Shiraz Khan is also in good form of late.
