During the good old days, match fixers used to make Sharjah their base camp. Mafia dons such as Dawood Ibrahim used to sit at the VIP lobby, when the Indian cricket team took on Pakistan. All that came to an end in 2000, when some of the high ranking Indian players were banned for match fixing. Sharjah was identified as the hub of match fixers and the BCCI decided not to play anymore international matches there. 
ICC is now very strict on match fixing issue. No player is exempted, we can see the case of world number one all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan, he does not involve in match fixing but he has been banned for 1 year for hiding match fixer information to the ICC. from this we can understand that how much strict ICC on this issue. so, I don't think, if IPL will be held in UAE or Sharjah, no one will dare to do match fixing.
, not sure why they were holding this as if everything would be back to normal in a short period and now the rest of the franchise cricket tournaments can plan their schedule and resume their matches and after those tournaments the ICC might take a position on the future whether international matches can be conducted on the same model
