Sri Lanka vs Pakistan: Sheikh Zayed Stadium Pitch Report
The surface at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium has been good for spinners and slow bowlers, which has made it hard for batters to score freely in the middle overs. The power play is still an important part of the game, though. The ball comes off the bat well, which lets batters get off to a good start and set up the rest of the innings.
The team winning the toss is expected to bat first, as the pitch tends to slow down as the game progresses, making it difficult to bat. The average first innings total here is around 156 runs in the Asia Cup 2025..
Sri Lanka vs Pakistan: Weather Report
The weather at Sheikh Zayed Stadium is expected to be clear and warm, with temperatures around 35°C at 8:00 PM local time. There is no forecast of rain, and partly cloudy skies will persist throughout the match.
Conditions will remain warm, though a slight drop in temperature is expected as the evening progresses. Dew may settle in during the second innings, potentially impacting bowlers and fielders under the lights.
