To contain any untoward incident from happening, the Dubai Police has come up with a plan for tightened security, and also measures to penalise the offenders. As per a report in Gulf News, Major General Saif Muhair Al Mazrouei, Assistant Commander-in-Chief for Operations at Dubai Police and Chairman of the ESC, stated the same.

Heavy Fines in Place
Meanwhile, this is the first time that India and Pakistan will take on each other, after the unrest between the two nations a few months back. In India, there have been calls to boycott this match as well, But now that the match is going forward, the foremost thing for the Suryakumar Yadav-led team, would be to select the best XI for the day.
In the last encounter, pacer Arshdeep Singh was left out of the XI, while another all-rounder Shivam Dube was preferred. The match is slated to start at 8.00 PM IST.
