DV vs MIE Pitch Report of Sheikh Zayed Stadium:

Your daily dose of cricket!

This will be the third game this season featuring the two sides, with both of them winning one game each in the previous couple of outings.

If we talk about the pitch that will be on offer for this particular game, it is expected to be good for batting, along with having something in it for the bowlers as well.

The surface is predicted to have good bounce, which the batters can use to their advantage and hit through the line after playing the initial few overs with caution, as the bowlers might get some swing when the ball is new.

As far as the fast bowlers are concerned, they will have to make the most of the assistance that they will get from the pitch in the first six overs and pick at least a couple of wickets to create pressure on the opposition batters.

The pacers will have to depend on variations like the cutters and slower balls that they have up their sleeves to achieve success once the ball gets a bit old.

When it comes to the spinners, for starters, they would hope for the dew not to play a decisive role in the game.

The reason is that gripping the ball becomes difficult, especially for spinners, if the seam of the ball gets wet, thereby they lose control of the ball.

However, if the conditions remain dry, the spinners will play a vital role in the match, with the pitch expected to assist them as well.

Taking into account the effect that dew may have in the second innings of the game, the team that wins the toss should opt to bowl first, as chasing will become easy as the match progresses, and the opposition bowlers will have their task cut out.

That is the reason why the team batting first in the DV vs MIE game should look to post a minimum of 180-190 runs on the board.

Conclusion

Desert Vipers would want to build on the win that they registered at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium against the MI Emirates when the two teams met at this venue last time in the ongoing edition of the ILT20 by clinching another win.

MI Emirates, on the other hand, would take confidence from the fact that they got the better of the Desert Vipers in the last meeting between the two teams and would aim to earn back-to-back wins.
