Pakistan To Win, 1.09
Pakistan’s bowling attack has far more variety and experience than UAE’s
UAE remain heavily dependent on Muhammad Waseem for runs, which makes them vulnerable if early wickets fall.
Pakistan’s batting wobble against Afghanistan was a setback, but against UAE’s attack, their top order is well placed to bounce back strongly.
PAK vs UAE Betting Tips
Pakistan to score 165+ runs
Their Pakistani top order batters like Saim Ayub and Fakhar Zaman enjoy Sharjah’s small boundaries. A solid powerplay could set the stage for a big total.
Total Sixes – Over 11.5
Both sides feature attacking batters – Waseem for UAE, Ayub and Fakhar for Pakistan – which should keep the six counter ticking.

Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates will meet in the 5th match of the UAE T20I Tri-Series 2025 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on September 4. Pakistan began the tournament with two convincing wins but stumbled against Afghanistan in their last outing, exposing some middle-order frailties.
The hosts UAE, meanwhile, are still searching for their first victory after back-to-back defeats, and they will need a collective performance to challenge Pakistan’s stronger lineup. With the final approaching, this clash carries extra importance for both sides.

PAK vs UAE Team Previews
Pakistan
Pakistan began the tri-series strongly with wins over Afghanistan and UAE, but their most recent outing exposed a fragile middle order. Chasing 152 against Afghanistan, they collapsed from 60/1 to 109/8, with only Haris Rauf’s late cameo keeping the margin respectable.
Still, their batting lineup – Saim Ayub, Fakhar Zaman, and Sahibzada Farhan at the top – has the firepower to dominate UAE’s attack. Captain Salman Agha and Mohammad Haris provide middle-order stability, while Faheem Ashraf offers all-round balance.
Bowling remains Pakistan’s strength. Shaheen Afridi’s new-ball threat, Hasan Ali’s experience, and Faheem Ashraf’s 4-for against Afghanistan underline their potency. Spinners Mohammad Nawaz and Sufiyan Muqeem provide control on Sharjah’s slow surface.
Pakistan Expected Playing 11
Sahibzada Farhan, Saim Ayub, Fakhar Zaman, Salman Agha (c), Mohammad Haris (wk), Hasan Nawaz, Mohammad Nawaz, Faheem Ashraf, Hasan Ali, Shaheen Afridi, Sufiyan Muqeem

United Arab Emirates
UAE’s campaign has been tough, with defeats to both Pakistan and Afghanistan highlighting their dependence on skipper Muhammad Waseem at the top. His blistering 67 off 37 balls against Afghanistan kept the chase alive for a while, but once he fell, the rest of the batting lineup struggled to maintain momentum.
Rahul Chopra’s unbeaten 52 was a positive sign, showing he can anchor the innings and provide stability in the middle order. Beyond those two, however, contributions have been sporadic — with Ethan D’Souza showing some promise but lacking conversion, while the lower middle order has been unable to accelerate.
On the bowling front, UAE have had mixed returns. Muhammad Rohid and Saghir Khan have picked up wickets but leaked runs under pressure, especially at the death. Junaid Siddique bowled a disciplined final over against Afghanistan, proving he can be effective with the ball, while Haider Ali offered some control with figures of 0/28 in four overs.
Still, the lack of consistency across the attack has made it difficult for UAE to restrict strong batting units. To upset Pakistan, UAE will need both Waseem and Chopra to fire again, while their seamers must hold their nerve against an aggressive top order.
United Arab Emirates Expected Playing 11
Muhammad Waseem (c), Muhammad Zohaib, Ethan D’Souza, Rahul Chopra (wk), Asif Khan, Harshit Kaushik, Dhruv Parashar, Saghir Khan, Haider Ali, Junaid Siddique, Muhammad Rohid
PAK vs UAE Toss Prediction
Teams batting first have generally enjoyed success in Sharjah this series, as the pitch slows down in the second innings. Expect the captain winning the toss to opt for batting first.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
Sharjah’s surface is on the slower side, with spinners dominating the middle overs. However, the short boundaries make 165–175 a par score. Expect dry weather with temperatures around 33°C and no rain interruptions.
PAK vs UAE: Who Will Win?
UAE’s reliance on Waseem at the top and lack of bowling depth make them underdogs. Pakistan, despite their batting collapse against Afghanistan, have greater depth and the bowling arsenal to control the match. If Pakistan’s openers see off the first 3–4 overs, they should post a winning total or chase comfortably.
Bet on Pakistan to win.
PAK vs UAE win percentage stands at 85% in favor of PAK.
