At the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Sharjah Warriors and Desert Vipers will square off. On Monday, January 31, 2022–23 ILT20 match number 23 begins at 18:00 local time.
The Warriors are currently unbeaten in four games and sit in fourth position, only three points behind the clubs at the top of the standings, following a very dismal start to the season in which they lost their first three games. They had 18 balls remaining when they won their most recent game by four wickets.
