Dubai International Stadium Pitch Report ahead of Desert Vipers vs Gulf Giants ILT20 2025 Match 24

Ahead of the Desert Vipers vs Gulf Giants match in ILT20 2025, here is the Dubai International Stadium pitch report.

The Dubai International Cricket Stadium will be the venue for the much-anticipated clash between Desert Vipers and Gulf Giants in Match 24 of the ongoing ILT20 2025 on Wednesday, January 29. The Desert Vipers have been the standout team of the tournament so far, sitting comfortably at the top of the points table with six wins from eight games. Their consistent performances have made them the team to beat this season.

In contrast, the Gulf Giants have had an up-and-down season, with three wins from seven matches. However, their recent six-wicket victory over Sharjah Warriorz should have given them a significant confidence boost. The Giants will be eager to ride that momentum into this match as they aim to keep their tournament hopes alive.

Dubai International Stadium Pitch Report

The Dubai International Cricket Stadium has proven to be a balanced track in the ongoing ILT20 2025, offering a fair contest between bat and ball. The pitch has shown early assistance for pacers, with the new ball generating significant swing. The powerplay has been a testing phase for batters. However, once batters settle, the track allows for fluent stroke play. 

After nine matches at this venue, the average first innings score stands at 148.56. The dew factor has also played its part, particularly in evening games, making it challenging for spinners in the second innings and complicating efforts to defend totals.  

With chasing teams enjoying considerable success so far in the tournament, captains winning the toss are likely to opt to bowl first.
