Sharjah Weather Report
As seen in the forecast above, the weather in Dubai is set to be a good one for a fine game of cricket. There seems to be no likelihood of a rain interruption and the temperature is set to be around 30-32 degrees celsius. Having said that, the team fielding first would have a tough time on the field, as they would be exhausted since it is an afternoon game.
Sharjah Cricket Stadium Pitch Report
The pitch at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium is known to provide a lot of assist to spinners and slow bowlers, as seen in the recently concluded Indian Premier League 2021. Low scores are a common feature on this track and batsmen would find it tough to play shots freely. A first-innings total of 140-150 would prove to a challenging one to chase down and even something above 130 can turn out to be a tricky chase. With both sides having good spinners, bowlers are expected to dominate in this fixture.
