UAE have won toss opted to bowls first vs freaking pakistan

Waseem | UAE captain: Going to bowl first. Today the way the weather is, dew will play a role. Will try to restrict them to a low total. It's a do or die game. We had a good game in Abu Dhabi. Different pitch and different game today. Jawadullah is out and Simranjeet is in.

That's good if this is happening.

Last minute changes would have been embarassing for her

Salman | Pakistan captain: We wanted to bat first and put them under scoreboard pressure. Great day for us to play a perfect game. They're a very good side. If we execute our plans for longer periods, we have a chance against any side. Two changes. Sufiyan and Faheem aren't playing. Haris and Khushdil are in.

Pitch and conditions | Mike Haysman: Pitch number 3, I think the ball is going to come on nicely. Can see a green tinge from time to time. Pretty good covering of grass all the way through. If the seamers get it right initially, they can do some damage here. Don't think the spinners will get much turn.

Teams:

Pakistan (Playing XI): Saim Ayub, Sahibzada Farhan, Mohammad Haris(w), Fakhar Zaman, Salman Agha(c), Khushdil Shah, Hasan Nawaz, Mohammad Nawaz, Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Abrar Ahmed

United Arab Emirates (Playing XI): Alishan Sharafu, Muhammad Waseem(c), Asif Khan, Muhammad Zohaib, Harshit Kaushik, Rahul Chopra(w), Dhruv Parashar, Haider Ali, Muhammad Rohid Khan, Simranjeet Singh, Junaid Siddique

Apparently Pycroft issued a private apology for the miscommunication in that match
