Pitch Report
Square borders of 57 and 64 metres, respectively, and 69 metres straight below the earth. There is some living, green grass there, although it’s uneven. Particularly with the new ball, some balls will speed through while others will skid through. This season, this pitch has received more spin than any other. In addition to being exceedingly dry, this surface is also crumbling. As the game progresses, the spinners will consistently receive spin. Here, the team batting second has an advantage, in my opinion, says Aaron Finch.
