Pitch Report 

The second match of the first day on this wicket looked even slower for the batters to pick the length. It was a low-scoring game. With the outfield being slower, the bowling side had an advantage. This shows that it is a pitch that will have a good time for bowlers but is still a better place for batters to hit.

SL vs UAE Top Fantasy Picks

Captain – W Hasaranga

UAE didn’t seem so comfortable against the spinners last match. Hasaranga, with his magic hands, can do wonders in this match against UAE.

Vice-captain / Wicket Keeper – K Mendis

Failed to perform well in the first game. But still, Mendis has a lot to offer from his kit. His range of shots and temperament makes him a favorite for this important match against the Arabian unit.

Batters – Nissanka, B Rajapaksa, W Muhammed

The Sri Lankan top order batters Nissanka and Rajapaksa are forced to hold the responsibility on their shoulders. With Rajapaksa’s s statement on eyeing the man of the series, this match will prove his character.

W. Muhammed played a decent number of balls on this pitch. He could have found the knack to propel here. The more he gets a strike in the beginning, the better it will be for UAE.

All-rounders – Karunaratne, Hasaranga, Z Khan, A Khan

C Karunaratne, with his death-over bowling skill, will be the best thing to have in our team, especially against UAE, which wasn’t performing well at the death-overs in their last match.

Both Z Khan and A Khan looked brilliant in the first game. They made good use of the behavior of the pitch. Hope the flow continues.

Bowlers – Chameera, Theekshana, Meiyappan

Chameera must be an all-time pick in T20s, especially in a pitch like this. At the same time, Theekshana is a new ball and death-over bowler who gets most of the opportunity to scalp the wickets.

Meiyappan got a good start in the last match. Since Sri Lanka has two serious left-handed batters in the middle order, the off-spinner Meiyappan is highly demanded.

Other good captain options will be Theekshana, C Karunaratne and K Mendis.
