Pitch Report:
The pitch at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium has been a difficult pitch to bat on. The bowl has been pretty slow to come to the bat. Bowlers will need to vary their pace in order to be effective. Batsmen will need to bide some time in the middle before going for the big shots.
A score of around 140-150 runs would be a fighting total at this venue. Both the teams will be looking to field first upon winning the toss. Dew is also expected as the match progresses.
