AFG vs WI 1st T20I Pitch Report

The wicket in Dubai is slow and low assist the spinners, and the bounce here is generally uneven. But batters can play their shots when the ball is new, but as the game goes forward, it will be challeging to time the ball.

Dew might play a crucial role in the second innings of the game and toss winning teams will prefer to bat first.
