Pitch Report

The pitch at the ICC Academy in Dubai is likely to be a good one to bat on. However, the bowlers have had something in it for them as well.

Nevertheless, it has been a fairly even contest between bat and ball, with the average first-innings score in the Emirates D20 tournament at this venue being 143 runs. More of the same could be on offer for this game as well.
