Dubai International Cricket Stadium pitch report
The surface at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium offers assistance to both the batters and the bowlers. While batters will be tempted to target the big runs towards the straighter boundaries as they are very small at this ground, however, dew could likely be an important factor, and either team winning the toss may elect to chase.

UAE vs WI Probable Best Performers
Probable best batter:
Shai Hope
The West Indies skipper was in decent touch with the bat in the County Championship Division Two for Yorkshire as he got the fifties in two appearances. He will aim to maintain his rhythm and lead his side from the front in the forthcoming series against UAE.
Probable best bowler:
Zahoor Khan
The medium pacer proved to be quite economical with the ball for UAE in the ACC Men's Premier Cup semi-final (1/14 in six overs) and the summit clash (0/15 in three overs). Furthermore, he has the potential to land the blows and will look to play a vital role in the upcoming ODI match.
