PITCH AND CONDITIONS
There won’t be any rain on the match day and plenty of sunshine has been forecast for Tuesday. It should be a pretty hot day with the temperature expected to be around 32-33 degrees Celsius.
The pitch at the ICC Academy in Dubai has been a pretty good one for batting so far in this tournament. However, it does seem to slow down a bit during the second period of play.
Singapore

- He played a match-winning knock and is likely to bat at number six again. Singapore will continue to open their batting with Rohan Rangarajan and Surendran Chandramohan.
