Pitch Report

The pitch at Dubai International Cricket Stadium generally offers a balanced contest between bat and ball. The average first-innings score is around 220 runs, but totals can fluctuate based on conditions. Early on, fast bowlers can extract some movement and bounce, making stroke play slightly challenging.

However, as the match progresses, batting conditions tend to improve, favoring teams chasing under lights. Spinners may play a crucial role in the middle overs, especially if the surface slows down. With dew often being a factor in night games, captains winning the toss usually prefer to bowl first to take advantage of better chasing conditions.
