TEAMS PREVIEW
United Arab Emirates Preview
Bahrainβs hopes of making it to the next round of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Asia Qualifier have taken a huge leap in the positive direction after the victory over Cambodia. The result coupled with Qatar losing their match has put Bahrain in a position of strength when it comes to reaching the latter stages of the competition.
A major reason behind the top form shown by Bahrain so for the season would be Haider Ali. The captain has played a strong innings. He has become the first player so far in the 2024-25 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Asia Qualifier B to hit 300+ runs. He has managed 302 runs from his five innings at an average of 100. Despite failing to hit a half-century so far in any of the tours, Haider Ali is coming under pressure from Qatarβs Liyanage.
Bahrain Preview
United Arab Emirates continue to hit big heights in the group and the victory over Qatar has helped put a buffer between them and the chasing pack. Qatar were seen as a big competition for the top spot after having held a 100% record alongside the UAE. Now, it is only UAE who are holding the mantle as the team unbeaten so far.
The big success for UAE in this regard has come about through players like Rahul Chopra, who has now moved up to 190 runs from his five innings at an average of 47.50. As he continues to wait for his first century of the season, Rahul Chopra was able to add 37 runs to his tally in the win over Qatar. UAE continue to possess one of the strongest batting lineups and this has been a major reason behind covering the bad moves so far this season.
Weather Conditions
The pitch has had an average first-innings score of 144. This comes down drastically to 112 in the case of the second innings. The teams batting second are expected to have significant trouble in chasing down scores. Meanwhile, the match may be played under cloudy conditions with humidity expected to be around 64%.
UAE vs BHR Pitch Report

Toss: To Bat
The teams which have batted first on the UDST Cricket Ground in Doha have had a 71% success rate. However, the toss has been unable to influence the match outcome hugely. The second innings score is also low on average and it indicates difficulty in chasing targets.
