Touring party will be announced on Sun 31-May 00:00.

Not ideal pitches with the Hard wicket stuck in the middle, yes Sticky and Crumbling suit our quality spinners but what happens if we get three Hard wickets which is a possibility! We have a plan though and hopefully it works out but we won't know until the pitches are set.

Anyway today's friendly against the UAE is the last chance to have a look at a couple of players before we finalise the squad.
