List of international cricket five-wicket hauls at Sharjah Cricket Stadium

Last updated

Sharjah Cricket Stadium is a cricket stadium at Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates. The international cricket match played on the ground was in 1984 when Pakistan played Sri Lanka in a One Day International (ODI) as part of the 1984 Asia Cup. It has since been used for Test cricket, ODIs and Twenty20 International cricket matches and has hosted both men's and women's international matches. The ground, along with others in the UAE, has been used by Pakistan as a home ground due to the security situation in Pakistan.
