Pitch report: Nothing much has changed. Some of the grass is gone from the first game. Looks hard and compact. There will early movement with the wind blowing across. As the day goes on, you'll see true bounce. There's very little room for error for the bowlers. Batters are in for a good game if they apply themselves. Outfield is lush and lightning quick.
We have made a few changes to our expert XI on Fantasy Handbook. Do check them out before locking in your fantasy team
Litton Das: We are happy to bat first. We played well. Still looking to improve. We will be looking for 170 plus. Emon, Mustafizur and Mahedi not playing.
Muhammad Waseem: We are going to bowl first. Last game we were very close. We will try to win the game. The way we were batting in the middle, we need to change it a little. Two changes for us. 150-160 should be a good total.

Batting first, a century from opener Parvez Hossain Emon saw Bangladesh post 191/7. In pursuit, the UAE started off superbly and were even ahead at the halfway stage. Skipper Muhammad Waseem notched up fifty and in the company of Rahul Chopra, kept UAE on Bangladesh’s heels. A couple of quick wickets, however, shifted the tide
