UAE vs WI Preview

Prior to this fixture, both teams have clashed twice before in ODI cricket. Out of the 2 games, West Indies have convincingly won both the games. UAE are yet to register their maiden victory against West Indies in ODI cricket. However, let’s not forget that the home side has an impressive track record in their last 5 ODI fixtures winning 4 out of 5 matches. Whereas, West Indies on the other hand haven’t had the best of the outings off late and have lost 3 out of the last 5 ODI matches.

This will be a crucial series as both teams look to prepare themselves ahead of the CWC Qualifiers which is scheduled to take place sometime in mid-June. Let us dive right into it to preview this fixture in more detail.

Sharjah Cricket Ground Pitch Report

Sharjah Cricket Ground is not a high-scoring venue. The deck is generally on the slower side and can get progressively slower as the game goes on. The pitch is dusty and dry and is hardly in favor of pace bowlers. If we go by the past data, the average first innings score in ODI cricket is 226 whilst the team batting first (127) has won on more occasions than the team batting second (103).

Hence, it will be an advisable tactic to bat first and put enough runs on the board to skittle the opposition during the second innings.
