Is Eden Park’s Pitch Batting Or Bowling Friendly?
Eden Park is renowned as a batter's paradise due to its small boundaries. Batters usually dominate in both innings, benefiting from the spongy bounce that the surface offers. Notably, the surface might develop to be a better one for the New Zealand vs Pakistan match later on the same day.
Playing on top of the bounce is key to success for batters. For bowlers, maintaining a hard length is essential to make use of the bounce, as slower variations tend to lose their effectiveness on this pitch. Accuracy in line and length becomes crucial, making it a challenging surface for bowlers in the Women's T20I format.
