Pitch Report
The surface of the Sharjah Cricket Stadium is preferred mostly by the bowlers. Usually on the slower side, the spinner will aim to make the most of the pitch, and the batters should look to stay patient in the early stages of the game and accelerate towards the back end of the innings. Hence, opting to bowl first could be a wise decision for the skipper winning the toss at this iconic venue.
