HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala is one of the most beautiful cricket stadiums in the world and with the 5th Test match between India and England all set to unfold on 7th of March in the background of Himalayas, the buzz around the game is surely the one that cannot be ignored.

 The weather in Dharamsala is always a fascinating aspect, but with a Test match around the corner, the debate around the pitch has also caught fire.


A Slow Turner Or Seamer-Friendly Deck?

The pitches in Dharamsala are mostly good for batting with good bounce and some movement off the deck for the seamers. Though some reports have suggested that it will be a slow turner this time around.

However, with conditions expected to be overcast and rain also likely to interfere, the conditions might assist seamers more than what we have seen in this Test series so far. Also, the cold temperatures might help ball retain moisture for longer time which could further help pacers.

However, the pitch is also expected to turn as the game will progress and the batters will have to apply themselves throughout the game. There will be value for shots though, and once again, we might see a balanced pitch with every aspect of the game coming playing a role over the course of five days.
