However, the Deccan Gladiators have a more well-rounded and lethal bowling line-up which could lend them a vital edge in the match. The Bangla Tigers will depend on Robbie Frylinck and Thisara Perera who can bat and bowl till the end of each innings. Rossouw and Ingram are specialist batsmen who will look to get off to explosive starts while Fletcher is a suitable wicket-keeper batsman too. The Gladiators are one of the most powerful sides on paper at least in this tournament and have Watson, Cutting, Pollard, Devcich, Shahzad and many other stars. Bhanuka Rajapaksa has also been impressive lately. The depth in bowling is very good with Crane, Ahmed and Mills coming into the mix.

Key Players to Watch Out For
- Qalandars: Undoubtedly their captain Shahid Afridi is the biggest game-changer in any shorter format while they will also have solid support from reliable Chris Jordan, Samit Patel and Luke Ronchi.
- Northern Warriors: Darren Sammy is a specialist and so is the explosive and dangerous Andre Russell. They also have the hard-hitting Nicholas Pooran, dependable Lendl Simmons and Sam Billings and of course, Sikandar Raza and Wahab Riaz in the bowling attack.
How They Stack Up
It is quite clear that the Northern Warriors have a more balanced unit since they have all-rounders like Sammy, Russell and Billings while the bowling unit looks sorted with Riaz and Raza. The batting unit is also sorted with Simmons and Pooran among others. The Qalandars look a little weak on paper and have been affected by the exodus of several Pakistan national cricketers. Afridi notwithstanding, the rest of the team will depend heavily on Chris Jordan and Samit Patel while Luke Ronchi should be a good batting bet for them.
Match 6 Prediction
While cricket is always full of surprises, the Northern Warriors are expected to romp home with this one. They have the more balanced side and of course, people like Russell and Sammy make a big difference in the scheme of things.
