MI Emirates easily won their Eliminator match, and they are looking in great rhythm at the moment. The addition of Rashid Khan has made this team a lot more potent.

GUL vs EMI pitch report today match

Dubai International Cricket team has hosted a total of 13 games in the ILT20 so far, and it has gotten a little slower. However, it is still a very good track to bat on. There is an even amount of bounce on the track, and the batters can enjoy their stroke-playing, but they will have to time the ball well.

Out of 13 matches, 8 matches have been won by the chasing teams, and the average 1st innings score has been 164 runs. The average score suggests that there has been good competition between bat and ball so far here on this ground. The outfield here is very quick, and it will aid the batters.

With bigger boundaries, the spinners will definitely play a very big part in this match. It is certain that the dew factor plays an important part in Dubai and both captains would be looking to chase upon winning the toss in this match.
