Dubai Pitch Report
The pitch of Dubai International Cricket Stadium proves to be helpful for both batsmen and bowlers. On this pitch, light swing can be seen in the initial overs for fast bowlers. Whereas, batsmen will also need to be cautious in the beginning, but once set, it can be easy to play big shots on the pitch. Apart from this, due to more matches, the Dubai pitch is expected to slow down even more as the match progresses. In such a situation, spinners can play a major role. Teams will have to put at least 150 runs on the board in the first innings. If there is dew in the second innings, it can affect the bowlers, which can make batting easier. The team winning the toss on the pitch of Dubai International Cricket Stadium may prefer to bat first.
