DUBAI INTERNATIONAL CRICKET STADIUM (DUBAI)Pitch Report

The Dubai International Cricket Stadium is known as a batting paradise. Unlike many other surfaces in the country, the Dubai pitch supports batters as the match progresses. The toss winning skipper should opt to field at this venue; especially during the evening matches as the dew often comes into play at this time of the year, making it harder for bowlers to maintain their line and length.

Test Match Pitch Report and Toss Factor:

As the pitch is devoid of grass, the fast bowlers struggle a lot in the early days and hence the team that wins the toss at Dubai International Cricket ground usually decides to bat first to put up a winning score in the scorecard. It is a good wicket for test matches. The bowlers have to be consistent and by the 2nd and 3rd innings, the footmarks of the previous day bowlers make the pitch abrasive, and the batsmen start struggling to spin bowlers which is the reason for the steep fall in the average scores. In the last innings of the test match, the bowlers will get help from the pitch, pacers will get swing due to cracks developed or dry wind flows. Spin bowlers will be great on the dry and rough pitch. In the last five Test matches here, the team batting first has won every match. Of the 12 total Test matches played in the stadium, 7 matches were won by the team batting first, 3 matches won by the team bowling first and 2 matches resulted in draw.

ODI Match Pitch Report and Toss Factor:

In ODI, Dubai ground pitch is batting friendly and you can get a good score in first innings, the bowl will come good on bat and batsmen will enjoy batting here in the power play of the ODI match. Spinners can also come into the play as it will dry and flat pitch and spinners will get good turn and bounce which can trouble any batsman. The team who wins the toss will decide to bat first as in the initial Innings, the flat pitch will help the openers to form or to give nice inertia to scoreboards with fine partnerships. The boundaries are not so big as which are in Australia. So, the total score of 300+ might can be achieved.

T20I Match Pitch Report and Toss Factor:

In T20 Dubai Pitch is good for batting and batsmen will enjoy batting here in T20 matches. If it is a day match, the first innings is easy for batsmen to score whereas, in the second innings, the pitch gets slow as time passes and the ball does not come easily on the bat because of which it becomes difficult for batsmen to chase the score. Interestingly not every captain who has won the toss has chosen to bat first here. This is because in day-night and night matches, depending on the weather conditions, dew makes it hard for bowlers in the second innings, and the power hitters can take this situation and turn it into an advantage. As of now the ground has witnessed 63 matches where the team batting first has won 31 matches and the team chasing has won 32 matches.
