Pitch Report

The pitch at the ICC Academy, Dubai is best suited for batting, but it also tends to assist the spinners. Batting under lights is found to be easier and both the teams will be equally benefitted in that aspect.  However, there’s also an equal chance of the pitch being worn out by a small fraction due to action of the first two days. It might behave a tad slower than usual.
