The surface in Abu Dhabi has been dry till now, and the cracks do open up as was seen in the Afghanistan vs Hong Kong and Hong Kong vs Bangladesh matches. During both these matches, Hong Kong couldn't give their opposition a hard time, and that's why the toss at this pitch has become irrelevant. The pitch hasn't been batter-friendly, and neither has it assisted the bowlers; thus, it is well-balanced.
