Pitch Report

The new ball bowlers have got some help at Durban in the first innings. The spinners also get something off the track and overall, it's an excellent venue for batting. Batting gets easier as the game progresses with some help to the wrist spinners. Teams will prefer chasing in this game. Expect scores in the range of 160-180 or 180+ in this match. 

Fantasy Value from Pitch Report

  • Bowlers who will bowl with the new ball and then towards the end of the innings in the first innings will be a must-pick. 
  • Middle order batters from team batting first and top order batters from the chasing side will be a must in your fantasy teams. 
  • Spinners won't be very effective. Try them in GLs.
