After securing six consecutive wins, India will face Sri Lanka in the 33rd league-stage match of the ICC World Cup 2023. While India have been unbeaten, occupying the top spot in the standings, Sri Lanka are placed seventh with just two wins in six appearances. So, while the Men in Blue would like to sustain their winning streak, the Lankans would be desperate for a win to keep their semifinal hopes alive. 

Therefore, as the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai gets ready to host the face-off, let's see how its pitch will play throughout the game. 


Wankhede Stadium Mumbai Pitch Report

The surface at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai has been flat and conducive for the batters so far in the tournament. Besides new ball swing, the opening bowlers have found little assistance off the pitch. Meanwhile, there could be a hint of turn for the spinners, but the batters can negotiate it. 

The wicket has shown no signs of slowing down with time. However, the seamers could get subtle swing and seam in the evening under the lights. Overall, it will be a terrific batting wicket with truckloads of runs on offer. There was no real dew during the evening in the last two games played here. So, the toss-winner might opt to bat and put a mammoth total on the board to keep the opposition under the pump.
