'We've learned lessons' - Dasthakir

Mohammed Dasthakir , the dubai zahirians skipper is confident that the lessons Zahirians have learned from their tour of the Ajman CC  will stand them in good stead when they arrive in Nad-al-Shiba second week of April 2010 for two short format matches.Zahirians lost the last Match against Ajman CC in the WLP, with the home batsmen unable to counter the hosts' pace attack. But Dasthakir, the team skipper, has been encouraged by the improvement his team has shown over the course of the game and feels they will have benefited from the learning experience.

While Dasthakir accepted that Zahirians's batsmen had struggled throughout the last couple of months, he felt their improved performances since the start of the year 2012.Ayyub Padladka, for example, having averaged just 19.16 in the few months ago, bounced back with successive two half centuries in the middle of December 2010 and finished this match with an average of 26.66.Mohammed Irshad figures for the same game - 13.50 and 22.75 - tell a similar story. Mohammed Rafeek, having come into the side, also impressed with a unbeaten match-defining innings of 40 to win the second match in Janaury 2012.

"We've learned some good lessons from that game and earn experience. You can see some of the learning coming out in some of the batsmen at the moment - which is great to see - it would be very disappointing to go through those tough experiences and not come out the other side as better players, but I think some of them are coming out the other side as better players."A good example would be Ayyub Padladka who has turned round his form. He has shown us a different method in that game.played as a finisher. He has worked very hard re-jigging his method and it's nice to see that it's working for him. It's nice to see him playing as confidently as he is playing at the moment; that's great to see.

"The experience that those guys will have gained in a pressure situation against very good opposition in these conditions will be absolutely vital to their growth and to our growth as a side.and how quickly we learn - is vital to our chances in Nad-al-Shiba. it will be a different type of game and a different type pitch.So we have to make the most use of this next one and then we move on to different counditions of the game at the start of the summer. But this experience out here has been great for us."

The Big Picture

"I don't want to waste my runs in the warm-ups, but it's always good to get them under the belt, and I hope to put in a good performance on friday. As a team, we are aware of our shortcomings in Turf ball cricket, but we've played a lot in UAE cricket in the last couple of years, and we know we've got the resources to take it on and win."Ayyub Padladka the dubai zahirians all rounder Joins squad after 6 weeks.

Include him self all rounder Mohammed Nisar added to squad after 10 months.Mohammed Rimaz after 17 weeks can these two boost Zahirians on this friday against Ajman Sports Club?Ayyub Padladka the Dubai zahirians Middle order batsman and part time seamer have scored 914 runs in 33 short format games in 24.60 avvarage with a two half cencurys and hold 19 wickets.so selecters keep lot faith on him to make better perpormens in WLP this friday.

Team news
 Nisar is likely to come in as Shamil's replacement. Nisar he is yet to open the score in wonderland, so Nisar could open the batting with Mohammed Siraj. DZCC, if they choose to go in with five bowlers, could give Irshad, Malinga, Rimaz and Rafeek to go with Hillal. Although this would be a good chance to experiment with five bowlers, it seems likely DZCC will stick to their preferred route of a bowling-heavy line-up.

Dubai Zahirians (probable) : Dasthakir, Siraj, Ayyub, Irshad, Rafeek, Malinga, Nisar, Imran, Hillal, Zahir and Rimaz.

Pitch and conditions
The recent heatwave in WLP has abated to be replaced by more not normal conditions with hot wind. DZCC's pace attack won't mind overhead conditions to help them and there is a chance of some dust during the weekend.which should encouraged batsmen and bowlers who are good enough to take advantage.

Captain Returns on Big Stage

The demotion of opening batsman Mohammed Shamil to the reserves and the inclusion of skipper Mohammed Dasthakir are among a host of changes in Zahirians's BIG BATTLE - 2012 squad against JET X1 Sports Club on comming friday in Wonderland Park. Zahirians's selectors have dropped four of the 15 players who were part of the last series against North Idians in same venue, demoted two to reserve status, and called up five. They also continued to not pick Anis ul Rahamn and Madhu.

Mohammed Fayas, Mohammed Ziyad, Mohammed Sanaz and Ayyup Padladka, allrounder Mohammed Rikaz and medium-pacer Mohammed Nazeer were dropped from the squad that played Last year with same oppenent. Mohammed Shuhaib and medium-pace allrounder Mohammed Roshan, who were also got  part series after selections.Mohammed Irshad and Malinga the new comming all-rounders also won there places.The selectors did not name vice-captain, but said their names would be "declared shortly". as skipper Dasthakir returns and remains same.

Dubai Zahirians With three wins in their previous four games in 2012, they are undoubtedly favourites, a concept so vital to most sporting contests, but considered taboo in the short format games. They have earned the tag, and not just through the belligerence of Mohammed Siraj. Mohammed Imran and Mohammed Rafeek have been consistent, mohammed Dasthakir has been effective in his unassuming manner, Mohammed Hillal has shown glimpses of his abilities and, perhaps, most importantly they've been relatively safe with their catching in the past tournaments plagued by poor fielding.

The zahirians selectors will also be watching closely. There is a long season ahead and a pool of reserve talent will come in handy. At least one of will be appearing in Siraj with a replacement needed for at No. 1, while there is also a batting vacancy due to Mohammed Izzath's and Mohammed Shamil's Vacation.Dubai Zahirians had announced their squad on Thursday, a day ahead of the series extended deadline for naming the 14.

The Big Picture

Dubai Zahirians haven't won their previous two home series, but a failure to close out this one will cause the most criticism. While the other contests were against teams near the top of the rankings, this one is against a side that was struggling to find its feet in UAE cricket. A series that was expected to be all one-way traffic is now level at both teams view, with DZCC having already achieved their pre-tour ambition of winning a Series in out side the home.

After basking in one of their greatest victories, Zahirians have now scaled up their goal to a series win in Jafliya against Lankans SC. The last success came about through significant contributions from many of their players - Mohammed Hillal and Mohammed Izzath making good contribution.That's something they need to repeat in Jafliya if they are to pose a challenge to Lankans Sc, who remain favourites despite the Jafliya's debacle.
