This episode comes off the back of a heartbreaking loss to the Dubai Capitals in the Qualifier with the Capitals winning by five wickets off the very last ball to secure a spot in Sunday’s final.

For the Vipers it means that in order to join them they have to do it the hard way, playing against the winners of the eliminator between MI Emirates and Sharjah Warriorz that takes place in Abu Dhabi on Thursday night.

That next game for the Vipers comes up quickly, on Friday night in Sharjah and the equation is a simple one – two wins will see the team lifting the title for the first time; anything less and it’s a season with nothing to show for the efforts of the players and staff.

Coming up we reflect on the defeat at the Dubai International Stadium in the company of Head Coach James Foster and fast bowler David Payne.

But before we do so, a reminder that there’s still time for you to catch the Vipers in action this season. If you want to watch that eliminator in Sharjah on Friday the 7th of February then you can buy tickets via the link below the description for this podcast or via the DP World ILT20’s own website.

Friday’s game is an all or nothing match for the Vipers so it should be very much worth your trouble to catch it!
