Dubai Pitch Report
The surface at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium is one that is preferred by the bowlers. The spinners could get some assistance on the pitch, and with sixes not coming easy on the pitch, the batters could have a tough time adjusting. Opting to bowl first after winning the toss could be a wise decision.
