UAE vs Bangladesh: Sharjah Cricket Stadium Pitch Report
The surface at Sharjah Stadium has been a grassy, hard pitch and has produced high-scoring contests in the past two matches, with batters finding it easy to time the ball as it comes nicely onto the bat. Unfortunately for the spinners, the small boundaries and lack of assistance from the surface have made it difficult to contain runs. Batters have been able to wait and pick their shots, making spin less effective on this pitch.
Teams would benefit from including an extra fast bowler to capitalize on the pace-friendly conditions. This match is expected to be another high-scoring affair, with the chasing side likely to have an advantage, as the pitch tends to get better as the innings progress. The average first-innings score is around 180 runs, and the team winning the toss is likely to opt to bowl first to exploit the new ball and take advantage of favorable early conditions.
