Match Preview
UAE vs BAN: United Arab Emirates will take on Bangladesh in the first T20 international of Bangladesh tour of United Arab Emirates 2022. The game will take place on 25th September 2022 at Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai.
Bangladesh is touring UAE for a two-match T20 international. This will be their first bilateral series after the Asia Cup 2022. They had a disappointing tournament and will look to bounce back. UAE on the other hand looks good as a unit and will take advantage of home conditions. They failed to qualify for the Asia Cup earlier and will hope for a good outing against Bangladesh. The series was planned at the last moment. Bangladesh was originally scheduled for just practice matches. But they felt that international experience would help them prepare better for the upcoming T20 World Cup.

Match Predictions for UAE vs BAN
Bangladesh is the probable winner of this game. All-rounder Shakib Al Hasan is missing out on this series. He is currently playing in the ongoing Caribbean Premier League. Nurul Hasan will fill his shoes. Bangladesh’s experience gives them an edge over UAE. UAE however, will give a good fight as well. They are a good, inexperienced unit but will surely display quality cricket.
