Canada will take on the UAE in Match 20 of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 on Friday, February 13, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Both teams lost their opening matches and will be eager to register their first win of the tournament.

Canada began their campaign with a tough loss against South Africa. Chasing a big target of over 200, they managed 156 runs in reply. Navneet Dhaliwal again played a fighting knock, and Harsh Thaker also added valuable runs. However, the bowling unit of Canada struggled to control the opponents. Ansh Patel bowled well, picking up three wickets for the team. Canada will look like stronger all-round team in this match.

The UAE also had a disappointing start, going down to New Zealand despite posting a competitive total of 173. Muhammad Waseem and Ali Shan scored a half-century, but the bowling attack failed to get any wickets as New Zealand chased the target comfortably.
The UAE will need to improve their bowling plans if they want to turn things around.
