EMB vs FJR Live Score, 13th Match | Emirates D20 Tournament, 2025 — Emirates Blues face Fujairah under lights at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on 13 October 2025, 07:00 PM IST. Sharjah’s D20 nights usually reward intent in the powerplay and smart pacing through overs 7–15, before a late burst when the ball skids on. Emirates Blues have shown they can post and defend robust totals here this season, while Fujairah typically counter with an aggressive top order and multi-phase options who can stack dot balls in the middle overs. Recent fixtures at this venue have produced competitive first-innings scores and decisive middle-over swings, so controlling tempo (not just strike rate) will be central to this contest.

Expect Emirates Blues to anchor one end while rotating aggressively against spin, holding finishers for the last five overs. Fujairah’s route leans on fast starts, athletic out-cricket, and squeezing the middle to avoid par-plus at Sharjah. Either way, smallish square boundaries and a quick outfield mean momentum can flip quickly. Track every twist with EMB vs FJR Live Score as these UAE domestic heavyweights jostle for table position.

Pace vs Spin on Venue

(Last 10 match)

Sharjah is traditionally batting-friendly early, with true bounce and short square pockets; boundary dimensions hover in the ~62–65m range depending on the rope, making power-hitting viable. As the evening sets in, the ball can skid, aiding stroke-play, though quality spin and change-ups still bite through the middle. Across recent T20s at Sharjah, first-innings outputs around the mid-140s have been common, but in this D20 cycle we’ve also seen 170–180 totals when powerplay platforms are strong. Captains often lean toward chasing to read conditions and any dew. Par tonight: 150–165, with +10 if wickets are preserved to the death.

Conclusion

The matchup looks finely balanced, but the side that wins the powerplay and keeps a lid on overs 7–15 should control proceedings. If Emirates Blues front-load their intent and carry hitters into the last five, they can stretch well beyond par. Fujairah, meanwhile, thrive when their top order lands early blows and their middle overs force dots rather than merely low-risk singles. Given venue trends this week, a bowl-first call remains logical to gauge grip and potential dew; anything 165+ first up asks serious questions even at Sharjah. Expect a tactical finish shaped by fielding intensity and execution of slower-ball plans at the death.
