Dubai International Cricket Stadium Pitch Report – SL vs BAN

The pitch at Dubai is traditionally batting-friendly with some assistance for spinners. The ball comes nicely onto the bat, allowing stroke-making, while slower bowlers and spinners become crucial in the middle overs. Pacers need to rely on variations rather than swing, which is limited under these dry conditions.

  • Batting Conditions: Moderate to high scoring surface; par score around 165–175, but in-form Sri Lankan batters can push totals near 190+.

  • Pace Bowling: Swing is minimal; slower balls, cutters, and yorkers in the death overs prove effective.

  • Spin Bowling: Offers average turn; spinners like Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana will play key roles.

  • Average 1st Innings Score (T20 at Dubai): ~162 runs

  • Highest Total at this Venue (Asia Cup 2025): 188/6 – Afghanistan vs Hong Kong
