Alex Hales vs Naveen‑ul‑Haq / Zia‑ul‑Haq: A pretty good exchange there between Hales and these two young bowlers.
Hales is one who might look to establish a successful counter-attack right from the outset against the express pace of Texas's seamers.

Sunil Narine v Mitchell Santner
Two wily spinners; Narine’s mystery spin up against Santner’s steady left-arm constrictor, a subtle battle.

Andre Russell vs Mohammad Mohsin 
The battle between Russell’s brute strength against Mohsin’s leg-spin will be crucial in the middle overs.

Unmukt Chand vs Zia‑ul‑Haq
Chand’s timing of the ball off Zia’s left-armers could well determine momentum.

Dwayne Bravo vs Andre Russell
Both battle-hardened veterans,  Bravo’s change-ups up against Russell’s electric hitting during the crunch overs.
