Dubai International Cricket Stadium Pitch Report: Is It Batting Or Bowling Friendly?

The average run rate at Dubai International Cricket Stadium in the ILT20 2025 reads 7.63, indicating the pitch hasn't really been a batting beauty. So, we may expect balanced conditions, with the bowlers making things tough for the batters. 

The pitch could be slightly on the slower side, as the batters will need to fetch gaps to get some runs under their belt. However, dew might help the track quicken up a bit in the latter half. Also, considering that teams bowling first have won six out of nine ILT20 matches in Dubai this season, the toss-winner will likely field first. 

Players To Watch Out For At Dubai International Cricket Stadium

Shai Hope

  • West Indies' experienced cricketer Shai Hope has been the most successful batter this season, amassing 334 runs at an average of 66.80 and a strike rate of 140.33. He is in sublime form and might play a crucial role for Dubai Capitals. 

Tom Kohler-Cadmore

  • England's promising batter Tom Kohler-Cadmore has enjoyed stellar success in the ILT20 2025. In five innings, he has struck 163 runs and could be a threat to the Capitals in this match.

Dushmantha Chameera

  • Sri Lanka's premier pacer Dushmantha Chameera has been prolific with the ball in the tournament. The fast bowler has scalped nine wickets at an impressive strike rate of 12.55 and can run through the Warriorz lineup. 

P.S: Apart from these players, the eyes will be on Sikandar Raza, Gulbadin Naib, Dilshan Madushanka and Johnson Charles.
