Pitch Report

The surface is expected to be balanced for batting once more, but it usually starts to grip as the game progresses into the middle overs, which is when spin bowling becomes the primary threat. Batting sides must take advantage of powerplay overs as the ball becomes older and turns more, making it harder to score runs later on
