Dubai International Stadium Pitch Report:

The Dubai International Stadium is renowned for its sporting surface that offers a fair balance between bat and ball. While the pitch provides a true, even bounce that initially favours batters, the surface tends to get slower as the game progresses, bringing spinners into play. Fast bowlers can get some seam movement with the new ball, but due to the large square boundaries, they need to be accurate. Historically, the ground has favored the team batting second, with the dew factor often playing a significant role in evening fixtures, making it difficult for bowlers to grip the ball. Teams winning the toss will likely choose to field first to take advantage of these conditions.
