Pitch Report

Although the bowlers should get help off the surface, the batters are expected to dominate proceedings today. The new-ball phase will be critical with the pitch easing out after the first few sessions. Spin will come into play in the latter half of the match, making for a good contest. Both teams will ideally look to bat first upon winning the toss and put a big score on the board.
