Pitch Report
The Sharjah Cricket Stadium is one of the smallest venues in the cricketing world, particularly with shorter boundary dimensions compared to many other international grounds. This often results in high-scoring encounters in the stadium. In the first match itself, Bangladesh came close to posting 200 runs, and given the small boundaries another big total can be expected in the upcoming clash.
Head-to-Head Record
Bangladesh clashed with the UAE for four times and all the time the former has dominated the hosts for tomorrow's game. UAE will be hoping to level the series against the visitors by securing their first-ever victory against the Bangla Tigers.
