IND VS UAE Pitch Report

There is going to be some grass on the Dubai pitch. Fast bowlers can get a lot of help here. Earlier this year, when India played the Champions Trophy match here, the pitch was quite bad due to which spinners were getting help, but this time fast bowlers can wreak havoc. However, the weather forecast is a little less favorable, with "extreme heat" and a maximum temperature of 42 degrees expected. The temperature is still expected to be around 36 degrees at the time of the match, which can cause trouble to players as well as spectators. The captain who wins the toss may choose to bowl first to test the pitch.
