Scoring pattern at Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai:

The pitch is initially balanced—fast bowlers get bounce and some swing with the new ball. As time progresses, the pitch slows down. Spinners get reasonable assistance in the middle overs. At night or when the lights are on, dew increases the moisture content of the pitch, making it difficult for bowlers, especially spinners, to get hold of it.
