NZ vs AFG Pitch Report:
As seen from the recent games here, the pitch at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium has been a good one to bat on. Some swing will be available especially in the initial overs. As the match progresses, spinners will likely get some spin off the surface.
Wickets in hand will be key here. A score of around 160 runs would be a fighting total at this venue. Both the sides will be looking to field first upon winning the toss. Dew would not be a factor here as this is an evening game.
