IND vs PAK Pitch Report: Dubai International Cricket Stadium

The pitch of Dubai is usually slow, due to which it is not easy for the batsmen to score runs. The special thing about the pitch here is that it is completely concrete from the bottom. There are two pitches here, which are completely new, in the first match against Bangladesh, Bangladesh had decided to bat first on a dry pitch, but it did not get the benefit of it.
On the other hand, if we look at the weather, then once again the fast bowlers are likely to get swing and bounce from the new ball. As the match progresses, the role of spin bowlers will become important. If the spinners take wickets early, then the pressure on the opposition team can increase. This pitch is considered bowler-friendly, due to which there is a high possibility of a low-scoring match.
