The Dubai International Stadium has witnessed some high-scoring games recently and another good batting track might be expected at the venue. The onus will be on the opening batters to make full use of the field restrictions as spinners can get some purchase in the middle overs. As the dew factor can’t be ignored, the skipper winning the toss might want to have a bowl first.

The Indian skipper was on a roll against Sri Lanka despite early dismissals for KL Rahul and Virat Kohli. He assessed the conditions early on and then shifted the gears. He thanked the Lankan bowlers all over the park and made 72 off just 41 deliveries. As he plays the spinners well, Afghanistan bowlers need to come up with a precise plan against him.
Afghanistan ace spinner Mujeeb Ur Rahman was excellent with the ball against Sri Lanka in the last match as he scalped two wickets and gave only 30 runs in his four-over quota. He will be a bowler to watch out for in the upcoming match.
