Placed in a challenging group alongside powerhouses New Zealand, South Africa and Afghanistan, reaching the Super Eight stage was always going to be an uphill task for the two associated countries. Their first matches only made the road steeper. Canada were convincingly defeated by South Africa, trailing by 57 runs, while the UAE endured a tough outing against New Zealand, suffering a 10-wicket defeat. Another loss here would leave the losing side staring at an early elimination.

Arun Jaitley Stadium Field Report
The Arun Jaitley Stadium is typically a venue where batters enjoy their time in the middle. With relatively short boundaries and a fast outfield, attacking shots are rewarded and scoring is often smooth. The pitch generally offers good bounce and good carry, allowing players to trust the surface and play their shots freely. Early in the innings, fast bowlers may discover a hint of swing with the new ball, which can trouble openers for a short period. However, once the shine wears off, hitting generally becomes more comfortable.
Spinners often don’t get much help unless the surface is noticeably dry, so they usually rely on variations rather than spinning.
