Is Sharjah Cricket Stadium’s Pitch Batting or Bowling Friendly?

The Sharjah pitch has traditionally favored batters and it was no different in the first T20I, especially in the first half, with the ball coming nicely onto the bat and the shorter boundaries allowing the teams to post high scores on the board. The conditions often make stroke play easier early on against the new hard ball.

However, as the game progresses, bowlers tend to get some assistance as the pitch starts to grip, and slower deliveries become more effective, making shot-making increasingly difficult with spinners and fast bowlers with variations dominating the play.
