Sharjah Cricket Stadium Pitch Report
The surface has no demons in it and it is a wonderful batting surface. The spinners might get some help with the old ball but the ball is likely to come to the bat under the lights. Furthermore, the outfield is fast and the boundary dimensions are small. Expect another high-scoring encounter here.
