The Warriors needed two runs in as many balls and they managed to avoid a loss by a narrow margin and grabbed the two points to get going.Match DetailsMatch Abu Dhabi Knight Riders vs Sharjah Warriorz, Match 6 Venue Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi Date & Time Wednesday, January 15 , 8:00 pm IST Live Broadcast & Streaming Details FanCode (app and website) and Zee NetworkPitch ReportThe Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium aids batters more than the bowlers.
