PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

Abu Dhabi is expected to have a bright and sunny with no chances of rain as per the forecasters. We expect rain to make no appearance in this game.

Venue Details

Abu Dhabi is a flat track and batters are taking advantage of the conditions putting bowlers under a lot of pressure. We can expect a run feast of 110-120 runs in this match too. Spinners will have to use their variations and we have very little assistance from the track especially.

Toss: To Bowl

Chasing has been the most successful option in the matches played so far. Teams have chased down any target comfortably and no target is safe here. We expect both captains to bowl first if they in the toss.
