How did pitch and ground conditions at Abu Dhabi affect batting or bowling in this match? Did those favour the bowlers late, or was scoring consistent throughout?

The pitch looked flat at the start, helping batsmen to score freely. But as the match went on, the ball gripped a bit, giving spinners and medium pacers more advantage.

Scoring was never too easy. Boundaries were large in Abu Dhabi, so even good shots turned into singles. Bowlers enjoyed that because they could bowl with confidence knowing fours and sixes were not easy.
