Pitch Report

The pitch is slightly on the slower side although the batters should enjoy the conditions early on. There is some movement on offer for the pacers with the new ball. But with the brand new ball skidding on nicely, the batters will look to go after the bowling. As the match progresses, the spinners will come into play, making for an even contest between the bat and ball. Both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss with 160 being a good total at the venue.
