Interestingly, in the 29 T20Is that have been played here, 17 of them have been won by the side batting first. However, owing to the short boundaries, we can expect Rashid Khan and Shadab Khan to choose to field first after they win the toss.
The average score batting first here is 151. Spinners are known to get something out of the pitch at this venue. Afghanistan’s 215/6 against Zimbabwe in 2016 is the highest team score, so far, at this stadium.

With Sharjah or for that matter in the Middle-East, we are likely to get sunny conditions. For the next few days, in Sharjah, the temperatures will hit as high as 32 degree Celsius while during the night, they might come down to around 20 degrees Celsius.
There are a few clouds expected to cover the sky but they will not be harmful. Rainfall is not predicted for the next couple of days in Sharjah.
