Pitch Report

The pitch at the Optus Stadium will be an excellent one for batting with good help for the pacers with the new ball. The pacers will get good bounce off the surface and there will be little to no help for the spinners. The batters, once set, will be in for a big score as they can play their shots trusting the pitch. Teams may prefer chasing. The average first innings score here is 160 runs but anything above 170-180 will be a competitive total.

Fantasy Value from Pitch Report

  • Hit the deck bowlers will be important too alongside new ball bowlers from both the innings.
  • Spinners won't get much off an help, especially in the first innings.
