The fourth match of the ILT20 2025 season features a rematch between MI Emirates and Dubai Capitals at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on January 13. The encounter comes after a closely fought encounter that saw MI Emirates lose by just one run against the same opponents.
MI Emirates started their title bid with a disappointing defeat, struggling to chase down a modest target of 134 runs set by the Capitals. Despite a stellar effort from skipper Nicholas Pooran, who scored 61, the team faltered early in the innings, losing four wickets for just 23 runs. The partnership between Pooran and Akeal Hosein, who added 79 runs for the fifth wicket, was not enough to secure a win as the lower order collapsed under pressure.
Dubai Capitals, on the other hand, showed resilience in their opening match. Thanks to a stellar performance from Brendon McMullen, who scored 58, they managed to post a defendable total. Their bowling unit performed brilliantly and it was crucial in securing the win against MI Emirates.
