Pitch Report

The surface at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi is known for its batting-friendly nature, especially in the first half of the game. The bowlers (mostly pacers) might get going in the second innings under the bowling-friendly conditions. The average first-innings score here has been 174 runs while the overall average score is 170. So, the toss-winning skipper will look ahead to bat first and post a troubling total for the opponent.
