Both teams have arrived in Dubai with high‑octane squads. India’s line‑up features a blend of experienced campaigners and hungry youngsters, while Sri Lanka brings a spin‑heavy attack that has troubled opponents all tournament. Keep an eye on the opening batsmen – a solid start usually decides who controls the scoreboard.
The pitch report suggests a dry, slightly abrasive surface that should grip the ball early on. Expect seamers to extract movement for the first 15 overs, followed by a turn‑friendly middle phase. Captains will likely use the powerplay to set a platform, then rotate the strike to keep the run rate steady.
Key players to watch include India’s star opener who averages 58 in the tournament, and Sri Lanka’s leg‑spinner who has a wicket‑taking strike rate of 22 balls. If the spinner gets an early breakthrough, the match could tilt dramatically in Sri Lanka’s favor.
