RCB coach Mike Hesson feels a score of 150 to 160 could be competitive enough in Dubai ground since the side boundaries are bigger thus will bring down the average team total as compared to Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru which is smaller and thus teams can score more.
The other thing to focus on is the pitch, some grounds are good for spinners some grounds are skiddy and on Abu Dhabi ground seamers seem to do well as the pitch probably would not do well for spinners thus the line up needs to adjust accordingly.
The coach has already selected the designated death bowlers according to the pitch after learning from previous disappointments. RCB has consistently failed to reach playoffs since 2016 and seems better prepared this season, with a new death bowler, Chris Morris on the team.
