Dubai International Cricket Stadium Pitch Report

The pitch at Dubai International Cricket Stadium for T20 internationals, especially during evening games, typically offers a balanced contest between bat and ball. Here are some key points about the pitch conditions in the evening:

• Early movement for pacers: In the early part of the game, fast bowlers tend to get some assistance with the new ball, particularly in the form of swing and seam movement due to the presence of a bit of moisture from the dew.
• Settles for batsmen: As the game progresses, the pitch flattens out, making it easier for batters to play their shots. Once the ball loses its hardness, the stroke play becomes smoother.
• Spinners play a role: While there is not much sharp turn, spinners can be effective by varying their pace and using the larger boundaries to their advantage. The pitch can sometimes grip, offering slight assistance to slower bowlers.
