Pitch and Weather Report

The surface at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium in Sharjah keeps the bowlers in the hunt. Though the stadium is small, the surface is on the slower side and the spinners remain interested right through. In the first ODI, a total of five out of 13 wickets fell to the spinners. The team winning the toss is likely to chase.

The weather is set to be clear for the entire duration of the match with no rain expected.

Predictions

Best Batter of the Match: Brandon King

Brandon King smashed a stunning ton in the tricky run-chase in the first ODI. He scored 112 runs off as many balls with 12 fours and 4 sixes to his name. He opens the innings as well and is a pretty consistent cricketer for the Carribeans in this format.

Best Bowler of the Match: Keemo Paul

Keemo Paul is one of the best bowlers currently for West Indies in this format. His pace hurries up the batters and keeps them on their toes right through. In the first ODI, Paul returned with the figures of 3/34 in 7.1 overs and can run through the UAE line-up yet again.

Who will win the Match: West Indies
