UAE vs PAK Prediction: United Arab Emirates will be in for a must-win game against Pakistan on Thursday in the ongoing T20I Tri-series.
After a defeat against Afghanistan in the last game, Pakistan will look to regroup and get back on track. They are scheduled to face the host, United Arab Emirates, in the upcoming match of the Tri-series. The game will be live at 8:30 PM IST on September 4, hosted at Sharjah Cricket Stadium. Pakistan are still at the top of the table and are almost through to the final.
But they will look to get a win here and keep the winning momentum. UAE have not done justice to the home conditions they are playing in. They have been on the losing side in two matches, which has put them in a do-or-die situation. They tried hard in these matches, but it wasn't enough. They need a strong performance if they want to survive in this tri-series. However, it will be tough for them because of the non-performance of some key players.

UAE vs PAK: Probable Best Batter
United Arab Emirates: Muhammad Waseem has had two impactful knocks already and is the third-highest scorer. He has been pretty good at the top and is the only UAE batter that has shown great applications to face these teams.
Pakistan: Saim Ayub has not been able to perform as he would have liked. But we all know how dangerous he is once he gets going. He will be looking to put a good score under his belt against a slightly weaker UAE attack.
UAE vs PAK: Probable Best Bowler
United Arab Emirates: Haider Ali has been the pick of the bowlers for the hosts in recent times. He has 18 wickets in last ten games and is bowling at an economy rate of 5.35.
Pakistan: Haris Rauf is expected to do well here. UAE batters are not used to playing against a quick bowler like Haris, which can be vital for him taking these wickets.
Match Prediction: UAE have failed to compete in this tri-series, which was expected as they have not been playing consistently against higher-ranked teams. Only a few batters have shown the courage of taking on the bowlers. The other batters are struggling badly. The UAE bowling attack has not been able to contain the opposition.
They have given runs at the higher economy rate. So, they have an uphill task for them in this game. Pakistan have their issues, but still, they are better than UAE in both departments. They have a few of the best T20 players. Hence, Pakistan are likely to beat UAE in this game.
