AFG v UAE Pitch Report

Sharjah has always been a good ground for batters, and the conditions are likely to get better as the match goes on. In the first two games of this tri-series, batting played a big role in deciding the results. But as the pitch got slower, chasing became harder. That’s why winning the toss and batting first seems to be the best option for the captain.
