PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

Abu Dhabi will have clear skies on April 25, and we will likely see a hot evening. The wicket has been good to bat on, and batters have played their strokes easily on this surface. The side batting first would be happy to have 150 runs or more on the board.

SCT-W vs UGA-W Pitch Report

Tolerance Oval, Abu Dhabi, has a good batting surface, and the conditions have been excellent for batting. The outfield is fast, and this allows easy boundary scoring. Fast bowlers don't get much assistance from the track where the ball keeps low. Spinners have enjoyed bowling in these conditions as the ball turns sharply.

Toss: To Bowl

The wicket at this venue favors sides that have chased. We have seen big scores being chased in the past as the batting conditions remain excellent throughout the game. Hence, the side winning the toss will likely opt for bowling first.
