This fixture is indeed a mismatch. The UAE, 16th in the world, are the highest-ranked side in this group, while Bhutan are 77th. Expect the UAE to register a big when they meet Bhutan for the first time in the format.
The UAE produced a strong performance in the tri-series involving fellow T20 World Cuppers Namibia and the United States a few weeks ago. In four matches, they won three to take the tri-series honours at Windhoek.
Bhutan, meanwhile, finished third in the quadrangular T20I series at home. After losing the opener against eventual winners Thailand, they regrouped well to beat the Maldives and Indonesia. In the semi-final, however, they succumbed to the Maldives. A thrilling one-wicket win in the third-placed play-off salvaged some pride.
