Same pitch again, pitch seven, looks absolutely beautiful. There's a lovely breeze blowing over my left shoulder to the short boundary - 72 yards. Longer boundary, hitting into the wind, 78 yards, down the ground, 65 yards. The batters will really enjoy this surface, this evening, those roots of grass have been done away. Less lateral movement off the pitch, some of the batsmen will really enjoy the pace and bounce. Some of the batters really enjoy that in this format, the pace to work with. With that new ball, you might just get a couple to move off the seam. Later on, we've seen conditions really stacked up in favour of the batters, with a little bit of dew and sweat, bowlers find it really hard to control the ball late on. Perhaps try to stay away from yorkers, go for the slower balls into the deck and drag the batters away from those hitting zones. Ryan Rickelton gave the bowlers the stumps, stayed leg side, and whacked them leg side the last game. Adair adjusted his plans, bowled those wide yorkers and did for Rickelton. This pitch is 16 centimeters more than Sharjah. More bounce here, need to contend with that, reports Niall O'Brien and Vernon Philander.
