between the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Nepal (NEP) at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on 5 November 2025 at 11:00 AM (local time). Both teams have been competitive throughout the tournament and will be looking to strengthen their position in the League Two standings.


UAE, playing on home turf, have shown consistency with both bat and ball in recent matches. Their batting lineup, built around technically sound players and powerful stroke-makers, has the potential to post or chase down big totals. The presence of several dependable all-rounders gives the team balance and flexibility, while their bowling attack—featuring experienced pacers and disciplined spinners—adds depth and variety. The Emirates will aim to capitalize on home familiarity and crowd support to gain an edge over their Asian rivals.


Nepal, on the other hand, have grown into a formidable side in associate cricket, blending youthful energy with smart cricketing acumen.

Nepal’s bowling, led by both pace and spin options, has often been their biggest strength in subcontinental conditions.

Pace vs Spin on Venue

(Last 10 match)

The Dubai pitch is traditionally balanced, offering assistance to both batters and bowlers. Early on, pacers might extract a hint of swing and bounce, but once the ball softens, the surface becomes excellent for stroke play. Spinners come into play in the middle overs, using the dry surface to grip and turn the ball. Batters who take time to settle can build substantial innings, as the pitch generally remains true throughout. The outfield is fast, and the short boundaries make it a high-scoring venue. Teams winning the toss might prefer to bat first, with scores around 270–290 considered competitive in 50-over matches.
