DUBAI: The battle lines are drawn between Dubai Capitals and MI Emirates for a nail-biting finale on Saturday, 17 February with both teams battling for supremacy in Gulf region’s marquee cricket extravaganza – the DP World ILT20.

A vibrant atmosphere awaits the ardent cricket fans at the Dubai’s iconic ‘Ring of fire’ Stadium for the grand final where cricket fever will be at an all-time high with cricketing world’s mega stars — Sam Billings, Rovman Powell, Jason Holder, Olly Stone, Max Holden, Sikandar Raza, Keiron Pollard, Nicholas Pooran, Kusal Perera, Dwayne Bravo Trent Boult among others — taking centre stage to enthral the weekend audience.

Winners to be adorned with diamond-studded pendant and bracelet

The winners of season 2 will not only walk away with the stunning trophy, which mirrors the rich Emirati culture and takes inspiration from UAE’s majestic icon and national bird – the falcon as well as UAE’s most famous landmark — the Burj Khalifa, but will also be adorned with diamond-studded pendant and exquisite bracelet.

Crafted with meticulous detail, each pendant boasts 240 diamonds, symbolising the legal deliveries in a T20 match. Three big diamonds on either sides represent the stumps on a cricket pitch. Names of all seven Emirates intricately etched around all corners of the pendant which is reserved for the victorious team, its weight mirrors that of a cricket ball.

Meanwhile, the diamond-studded bracelet, having five links, honours the owner of the triumphant team, signifying their conquest over five opponents.
