The weather looks pleasant and the pitch also looks good to bat on. There is some grass on the pitch but it may not affect the batters. The boundaries are short, hence a high-scoring match is expected from Al Amerat.
Nepal defeated Saudi Arabia by six wickets whereas United Arab Emirates humbled Cambodia by nine wickets in their respective last games in the tournament. The winner of today's game will play the final on Sunday at the same venue.
