The pitch at Sharjah is generally dry and can become dusty. It tends to favor spinners, especially as the game progresses. Initially, the pitch offers good bounce and pace, making it favorable for batsmen. However, as the ball gets older, scoring can become challenging. The skipper winning the toss often chooses to bowl at the venue and try to restrict the opposition to a low score.
